But there have been some corner cases where VAT was collected twice, once at point of sale and once again during the import process.<\/p>\n\n<p>So how can you recoup this double taxation? The good news is that there is a mechanism for ecommerce shippers to reclaim their money by submitting a claim on subsequent IOSS returns which include a section for such corrections\/claims for VAT overpayments.<\/p>\n\n<p>Please contact your EU financial intermediary or marketplace to determine what is required to claim a refund on double-taxed items.
