6.5       For the Founder’s Reserve, bottles of New Make Spirit or Cask Samples UK Duty will be paid (where applicable) by the Company before these items leave our bonded warehouse.

 

6.5.1    Members outwith the UK will need to pay duty and any applicable taxes due in the country of Delivery Location for the Goods. Different rates of duty apply throughout the EU and the rest of the world. It is Your responsibility to make the necessary arrangements applicable in Your country of Delivery Location and to be aware of all regulations prevailing in that country regarding the importation of alcohol.

           

ALPHA PACKAGE

6.6       UK duty and VAT may be payable after bottling depending on the Delivery Location of the bottled product. Payments for bottling, labelling and packaging will be due when Your Cask is bottled and must be paid prior to removal from the bonded warehouse and before delivery of the Whisky to You;

 

6.6.1    Members in the UK will need to pay UK Duty and VAT. Duty is the charge made by HMRC and is based on the percentage of pure alcohol. The current rate is £28.74 per litre of pure alcohol (Valid as at 20/11/2020). This equates to £9.25 per 70cl bottle of whisky bottled at 46% ABV. UK VAT is currently charged at 20% (Valid 20/11/2020) and is charged on the purchase price of the whisky in addition to the duty rate at the time of removal from the bonded warehouse and the storage and insurance charges paid over the Maturation Period. Both duty and VAT are payable once the Whisky is removed from the bonded warehouse;

 

6.6.2    If the Whisky is exported under bond, duty and VAT may be suspended (but not avoided) subject to the exporter being registered for both duty and VAT and being registered as a bona fide exporter. Members are responsible for paying duty and any other applicable taxes at the prevailing rates in the country of Delivery Location at the time of import. It is up to the Member to find a suitable importer in the country of Delivery Location to arrange the export and to meet all regulations in that country. Where possible Wolfcraig will take reasonable steps to assist with this.

 

6.7       In the event that the Member does not pay the Final Costs Invoice within 90 days the Company shall be entitled to retain or sell the Whisky as it sees fit, without liability to the Member and the Company shall be released from any future liability to deliver Whisky to that Member.

11        HOW WE MAY USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

 

11.1      The Company will use the personal information provided to it to provide the Goods to the Member and perform its obligations under the Contract, process the payment of the Membership Price and inform the Member about similar products or services that the Company provides, but the Member may choose to stop receiving these at any time by contacting the Company stating that they no longer wish to receive such communications. The Company may share personal information We collect with trusted third parties. The information We share shall be no more than required and the third parties’ use of the information shall be limited to the specified purpose for processing as agreed with them, e.g. processing Your invoice and payment of the Membership Price.
