woodland mill

[rutlandwater]

Hi, I'm thinking about getting a small mill for projects on the farm and have seen the woodland mills advertised. They look exceptional value for money. Just wondering what your experience is of these mills and if anyone has one I can come and see in action?

[Wendelspanswick]

I was also looking at the Woodlands Mill but after you factor in the Swedish VAT at 25% its not quite so attractive.

This looks very similar, works out cheaper, and is from a UK importer:

How to Order - Timbersaw

But after seeing the TrakMet at the CONFOR show I would try and stretch your budget to £3995 + vat for their offering which has a wider cut, a longer bed and much more heavily built.

TTP-600 Standard

That's what I'm saving my pennies for.

what do you mean not pay the vat?

[Dizzer]

it was strange he asked if i wanted to pay the vat on it i was talking to a uy in sweeden when i bought it and he said are you vat registered and i was and he said if you wasnt we could have sold it you without the vat on it

i did pay the vat on it but really shouldnt be saying all this on an open forum

hope theres not hmrc on here:biggrin:

[rutlandwater]

Presumably if you're VAT registered you can claim all the VAT back - or is it different with it being VAT from a different country?

[Wendelspanswick]

You have to be Euro VAT registered if you want to claim the VAT back.

[Ilnumero]

I nearly bought one, after evaluating many different entry-level mills. Very well made and more refined than most

 

If you look on their website and order there, the vat is calculated at 20%.

 

I couldn't get any kind of deal whatsoever, which I thought was dissapointing, and eventually bought a different mill elsewhere. Good mill, though.

If You the buyer lives in the UK and are vat registered and the seller is in a EU member country and is also vat registered then you should supply the seller with your UK vat number GB xxx xxxxxx and you don't need to pay any vat and they would supply you with a nett invoice with there vat number that way HMRC don't have too collect funds from governments from other countries which is an extra cost and risk for them

Yep this. I have a few customers who are in the EU, I don't charge them vat but need to fill in their car number and cost of their invoice on a form every quarter when I submit my returns
