Proof of export

Evidence must show that the goods you have been supplied with have left the UK. Copies of commercial transport documents and/or official HMRC export evidence alone will not be sufficient although they should still be provided. Information held must identify the date and route of the movement of goods and the mode of transport involved. It should include the following:

Name and address of vendor

Name and address of customer

Description of goods

Value of goods

Date of departure of goods from the auction premises and from the UK.

Name and address of the haulier collecting the goods

Registration number of the vehicle collecting the goods and the name and signature of the driver and, where the goods are to be taken out of the UK by a different haulier or vehicle, the name and address of that haulier, that vehicle registration number and a signature for the goods

Route, for example, Channel Tunnel, port of exit

Copy of travel tickets

Name of ferry or shipping company and date of sailing or airway number and airport.

Trailer number (if applicable)

Full container number (if applicable)

Vague descriptions of goods, quantities or values are not acceptable. For instance, "various electrical goods" must not be used when the correct description is "2000 mobile phones (Make ABC and Model Number XYZ2000)". An accurate value, for example, £50,000 must be shown and not excluded or replaced by a lower or higher amount.

If you are not able to provide adequate proof of export within the three-month time limit it may not be possible for the VAT deposit to be returned.
