" Any idea his I can claim VAT refund from London Heathrow if I order online with delivery in London ? "

Yes, provided you take custody of the Rimowa case in person, and depart from the EU with it as your personal or checked luggage.

2 suggestions:
1, Have the seller/store make duplicate receipts and provide you the VAT rebate form when you pick-up your Rimowa case.
2. Plan on extra time to process your VAT rebate at departure, just in case.

Buying Rimowa in Germany

Dear All,

I am a newbie here. I will be visiting Germany (Berlin ) for a week from Asia and am keen on buying my first Rimowa luggage.

Since I will be based in Berlin, entering via Tegel what will be the best (and cheapest) option for me to buy Rimowa? Should I buy from duty free, stores in Berlin or order online delivered to my hotel?

Also, can I claim a VAT refund if I leave Berlin for Prague by TRAIN and then leave Prague for Mumbai by flight after a week? I am not an EU citizen.

Thank you

Swissaire,

Thank you for your response. I had emailed koffer24 asking if they will provide a duplicate receipt and VAT form or alternatively provide a discount for the case but I have not received a espouse form them. I don't know what is the best way forward. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks You.

Hi Marcusboy-


What you have asked for is not an unwarranted or excessive request, so the courtesy of a simple reply from a professional business would be normally expected.

I would suggest you keep it polite but stay on them for a confirmation reply, using email, fax, or if needed, telephone calls.

I'm taking off to a trip in two weeks. I wonder if there's sufficient time for delivery. I live in California.

Also, is the code KP10A still valid? Any tip for placing the order w/o knowing German?

Greatly appreciated your help!

@Marcusboy

Did your plan end up working? I'm going to be in the same situation in January, and would appreciate your experience with trying to ship from DE->UK and claim VAT refund ex UK en route to HKG.

Hello,

Does anyone know what is the best current source of discounted Rimowa luggage from Germany for delivery to the UK and which discount codes to use? The maximum that I have found is 10%...

Thanks!

Any info on getting a "Made in Germany" Rimowa Topas sent to the US? If not delivered to my hotel in Europe in the coming weeks?
