Art-sale VAT & customs calculator
For galleries and dealers. Describe a sale — the work, where it is, who sells, who buys and where it goes — and get the VAT treatment, an estimate, the invoice wording, and the customs and heritage documents. This beta covers sales taxed in France: the work is in France when sold (in your space, at a Paris fair, or in storage), whether your gallery is French, European or based outside the EU.
beta
Estimate only — not tax or customs advice. VAT follows the 2025 French reform; the documents layer is the 2018 guide updated for Brexit, EMEBI and the 2025 EU import rules. Confirm real transactions with an advisor / customs broker. Your amounts never leave your browser — see the note at the bottom on what this beta records.
The work customs & heritage
The sale parties
The individual is named on the invoice as the seller — no VAT applies. Their own tax on the sale is a separate matter (below).
Amounts optional

Something look wrong, or missing?
Tell us what you expected and what the tool showed. If it's about the scenario on screen, tick the box and we'll see which options you chose (never the amounts).
What this beta records: your login email, the date, and the options you select (type of work, customs status, seller, buyer, delivery…) plus the regime the tool returned — so we can see which situations matter most to galleries. Prices, purchase costs and margins are never recorded or sent; all calculations happen in your browser. Feedback you send is stored with the same details.
