⚠️ Important Note for Our Customers in the European Union


As of January 1, 2025, a new directive (Directive (EU) 2022/542) has been in force that is binding on all member states of the European Union.

This EU directive stipulates that, from January 1, 2025, goods imported into the EU from third countries (including Switzerland) can no longer be subject to margin scheme taxation, but can only be sold and invoiced at a standard tax rate.

For our buyers in the EU, this means that all auction purchases handled by SINCONA Deutschland GmbH will be invoiced at the standard rate of VAT applicable in the respective country of destination. The total amount (hammer price + premium) is subject to the applicable sales tax in the buyer's country.

Please contact our customer service department if you have any questions regarding the processing and invoicing of your auction purchases.
