Hallo!
Ich wollte nur fragen, ob das normal ist? Ich habe vor dieser letzten Bestellung bei Amazon.de bestellt und habe nie bemerkt, dass die Preise ausgeschlossen sind. Oder war ich die ganze Zeit blind?
Als ich meine Bestellung bezahlte, hielt ich das Porto im Auge, aber die geschätzte Mehrwertsteuer wurde nie wirklich richtig präsentiert. Gerade als ich es auf meinem Bankkonto sah, war die Amazon -Bestellung 96,75 anstelle von 81,99, habe ich gesehen, dass etwas nicht stimmt.
Alle bestellten Artikel stammen von der EU bis zur EU. Deshalb bin ich verwirrt. Es war immer so?

Amazon.de removed German VAT and added Maltese VAT (€14.76) at checkout based on your shipping address. That’s why the price jumped from €81.99 to €96.75. It’s normal for EU-to-EU orders, but Amazon doesn’t show it clearly until the final step. You’re not blind—just caught in Amazon’s confusing VAT display system.
Why is yours like that? Mine shows a listing with a price and when checking out only shipping is added to the cost.
Amazon.de and orders to Malta as well.
Just because it’s on Amazon.de doesn’t mean it’s being shipped from the EU, unfortunately.
I’ve had to be careful about this myself in the past…sometimes that really cheap item you clicked on is actually coming from China…several shops on every Amazon site (even the other EU ones) are based out of China or other non-EU countries and that can end up with you being charged VAT and customs duties.
Edit: You also might want to try using something like send-on services to have the delivery made into Germany first to avoid anything where maybe the VAT rates are different in Germany than they are in Malta.
Could you be buying something shipping from the UK or somewhere outside the EU?
The fact it says “estimated” means they’re not the ones charging it. They probably take a prepayment which is then adjusted based on whatever customs decides to charge.
