Yachtfinders Global has had an exciting journey over the past 28 years! One of the services on offer that is so satisfying is the concept of “tourist delivery” for new or second-hand boats in Europe. It is a beautiful experience for people to enjoy their boats in European waters for a few seasons before bringing them back to New Zealand. 

However, there are important rules and regulations to be aware of, especially concerning VAT (Value Added Tax) for boats that are not VAT paid. Ensuring compliance with these regulations is crucial to avoid any legal issues. 

For those who leave their boats in Europe for extended periods, staying informed about the local rules and any changes in legislation is essential. It is a great way to spend time but requires careful planning and knowledge of the regulations. 

Feel free to ask if you have any questions or need clarification about the rules! This is just another service we offer at Yachtfinders Global.
