UK Orders will be dispatched by the most economic means unless an alternative is requested. Special Delivery/Next Day is available at an additional charge. If the order is split, the appropriate charge for the whole order will be applied when the first part of the order is dispatched, with no further charges levied on the remainder of the order.
If you choose the UK Collection option, we will notify you when your order is ready for collection.
International orders will be dispatched by the most economic airmail, unless an alternative method is requested. Exact postage is charged on all international orders, with a minimum charge of £4.95.
Tax Charges
For orders made from the UK, 20% VAT is added when applicable. All other orders are VAT free. Prices shown are inclusive of UK taxes.
Delivery to EU member states
From July 2021, there have been changes to the way VAT applies when making Business to Consumer (B2C) supplies of goods delivered from the UK to EU states.
The Studio Music Customer Service Team’s objective is to ensure you receive the physical goods you have selected and ordered as quickly as possible, with minimum delay and without the need to separately pay VAT locally before taking delivery in EU states.
Our B2C courier arrangements define you the customer as the Importer of Record of these goods. Our carriage and packing fee incorporates associated costs and therefore our invoice will show items as zero rated exports for UK VAT purposes.
Our supply of goods will be treated as made on a B2C basis if a customer cannot supply a VAT number when ordering on behalf of a business or other type of organisation.
We hope this clarifies your delivery and duty/tax charges - if you have any questions do not hesitate to contact our Customer Services Team on +44 1933 448 200 or email sales@studio-music.co.uk
