GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALES

1 General


These Terms and Conditions apply to the sale and delivery of goods by the MAK Design Shop that is operated by the MAK - Austrian Museum of Applied Arts / Contemporary Art. The Purchaser’s differing terms and conditions will only be valid provided the MAK Design Shop has approved them in writing. By placing an order, the Purchaser agrees to accept these Terms and Conditions.

Your order will be saved for one year after its receipt.

2 Prices

Unless otherwise indicated, all prices are gross prices “ex works” including VAT at the statutory rate plus shipping costs. The prices will apply until revoked.

No VAT will be charged on sales to customers outside the EU. However, the Purchaser will be responsible for import duties that are levied by his country of domicile. No Austrian VAT is payable on sales to businesses within the EU provided they quote their VAT ID, but they must pay the VAT in their country of domicile.
