| | Dear BrickLink sellers,
As the next step in making sure that we are in compliance with the EU DAC-7 regulations,
we will start collecting additional information from BrickLink Sellers shortly.
To see if you qualify as a Business Seller, please check with Article 8ac of
the EU Council Directive: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32021L0514
Information that we will be collecting includes the following:
- Name of business,
- Business registration number, including a supporting document. As different
rules
apply for each EU member state, refer to your local authority for directions,
- Tax Identification Number (TIN), including a supporting document: https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/tin/#/check-tin
- OSS Number and/ or VAT ID for each country of registration:
https://taxation-customs.ec.europa.eu/online-sellers_en
You may be aware that we already started requesting this from new Business Sellers
last year. For more details, go to our previous forum post regarding DAC-7: https://www.bricklink.com/messageThread.asp?ID=332298.
We are now starting the process of collecting this information for all of our
existing Business Sellers.
Existing Business Sellers should add this information to their accounts by December
31, 2024. After submission, documents will be reviewed by BrickLink.
To ensure that everyone’s requests are handled in a consistent and timely manner,
we will be requesting account updates in waves, by country. We strongly advise
our members to add information to their accounts by the deadline for their corresponding
countries. We will be sending out emails with further details and instructions
for each country in accordance with a schedule. We recommend that you start collecting
the required documentation as soon as possible and await further instructions
for how to add this to your account.
Kind Regards,
The BrickLink Team

All the information you are asking here, and supporting documentation, I've
already provided.
TIN, OSS number and VAT ID are the same for one-person companies in Portugal:

Thank you.

All paper items in the catalog should be set to Volume Bound according to our
guidelines. Any new sticker sheets, cardboard items, etc. added to the catalog
get set to Volume Bound from the beginning, but ones that we come across in our
travels through the catalog that need to get updated get updated. To solve your
issue, you have a couple of choices. You can change them in your personal store
settings to "Weight Bound"
|
In this last batch of 100+ stickers whose package types were changed to Volume
Bound, many, if not most, of them, I had already set them manually to Weight
Bound in my store. Usually, as soon as I add them to my inventory.
Not something you have control over but I don't think these changes should
override my initial settings.

sticker sheets causing the issues to the catalog.

The sticker sheets I have appear to be a mixture of both volume and weight bound.
The majority of the volume bound ones have dimensions, but not all.
Ideally, these probably all should be volume bound. Or at least the larger ones
that might get creased more easily and/or not fit in a regular bubble mailer.
|
All my orders ship in a box.
I set all my stickers' package type to Weight and that works for me.
When someone changes it to Volume Band (without dimensions) it disables Instant
Checkout, which is annoying.
I'm not sure why someone would that? It should be at store's discretion,
right?
|
Volume bound for any parts with large dimensions makes sense to me, and it should
probably be consistent. Individual items are always at the store's discretion
as you can set them manually to weight or volume bound.
|
For some years now, whenever I add a sticker to my Inventory I set Package Type
manually to Weight, and then when someone change it to Volume Bound it changes
my initial setting.
It shouldn't, should it?
| | Of course, if the dimensions
are entered then the IC issue goes away.

No! There are 3 different numbers. Look at the price sticker.

The yellow book has black letters whereas the other ones have white letters.

| I received this email from BrickLink:
[Action required] Deadline has been extended to August 4, 2024
"Hello Give.Me.A.Brick,
Your deadline to enable distance selling has been extended to August 4, 2024*.
We want to remind you that you have reached the EUR 10,000 distance selling threshold
on BrickLink for the 2024 calendar year and may need to enable distance selling.
The new EU Marketplace rules went into effect on July 1, 2021 indicating that
any seller with more than EUR 10,000 worth of distance sale of goods must register
with their local tax authorities and charge the VAT rate of the buyer's country.
You will need to register for either One Stop Shop (OSS) or in each individual
EU Member State where you sell on BrickLink. Once you obtain your OSS ID number
or the VAT IDs for the countries you transact in, you can then enable distance
selling on BrickLink.
To enable distance selling, go to the Value Added Tax (VAT) section on the Store
Settings Management page.
Go to Store Settings Management page
If no action is taken, your selling abilities on BrickLink within the EU Member
States (other than your home nation) will be blocked until the end of the next
calendar year. During this time you can still register and enable distance selling.
To learn more about distance selling, please see the European Commission article
on this topic.
Thank you,
The BrickLink Team
*11:59pm ET"
I already have registered for OSS and Distance Selling enabled since late 2022
so I'm confused if there's anything further I need to do?

If their paypal address is Singapore, then you should ship to Singapore.
Many Asian countries don't have heavy import duties as we have in Europe.
In the case of Singapore they will only pay 8% VAT over total order including
shipping and whatever fees.
Example:
set = 200 EUR
shipping + fees = 50 EUR
250 x 8% = 20 EUR is all the taxes they will have to pay.

I enjoy discussing Politics. From a philosophical and also historical point of
view, mostly.
But I regret that so much people are so entrenched in whatever party / ideology
/ righteousness / whatever, that they just can't truly debate in a rational
manner.
As I see it, the final goal of a debate should be improvement, not victory. But
I've been proven wrong.
It would help, as Marcus Aurelius put it, to view things we say as opinions,
not as facts; and everything we see as a perspective, not the truth.
And Jonathan Haidt would add, that anyone who values truth should stop worshiping
begin right.
For which Wayne Dyer comes to mind, but I'll stop here.
Anyway. It won't happen.

They are variants, though whether the 65* newer part is an upgrade or not
is definitely debatable it sounds like.

Yeah, I got confused with part 6628. I agree, 65098 is a downgrade towards 32138.
