Hello L: Lucaslujan

Yes, if you are a resident of a non-European Union country, you are eligible for VAT (Value Added Tax) refunds on purchases made within the EU, including Germany, that you intend to export.

However, Apple doesn't directly deduct the VAT at the point of purchase in the store or online. What you would do is pay the full price (including the VAT) at the time of purchase, and then claim the VAT back when you leave the EU.

To do this, you should ask for a VAT Export Form at the time of purchase. You'll need to fill out this form and have it stamped by customs officials when you leave the EU. After it's stamped, you can send it back to the store (or to the address provided on the form) for a refund of the VAT.

Remember, you'll need to leave the EU within 90 days of the purchase to qualify for the VAT refund.

Please note that some stores might not offer the VAT Export Form, or might have a minimum purchase requirement to qualify for the VAT refund. Therefore, it would be best to check with the specific Apple Store or online store for their policy on VAT refunds.

Also, note that there might be a small fee deducted from the refund for processing the VAT refund.

The best course of action would be to reach out to the Apple Online Store Team. The phone number for Germany is 0800 2000 136, and they are available Monday to Friday from 9am to 8pm, and Saturday from 9am to 6pm. Alternatively, you can also contact them via chat on the Apple website.

Best regards
