I live in the EU/UK. Can I purchase VAT free, if I’m ordering for a company?
Aim Audio Direct is predominantly based on serving B2C customers and as such we do not currently offer B2B sales via our web store.
However, if you are in the EU** and ordering for a company, recording studio etc., please contact us with your VAT details and we will handle the transaction via traditional invoicing.
Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to sell VAT Free into the UK as the IMPORT VAT is collected by the courier on behalf of UK Customs. You may be able to claim this back via your VAT return if you have an EORI number etc.
**Excludes DK. As our store ships from Denmark, we are obligated to charge local Moms/VAT to any shipment within Denmark.
Can I get a VAT/Tax invoice?
Each shipment will contain a printed copy of your Invoice. If you require a digital copy, please contact us
How can I track my order?
Once your order has been processed and dispatched, we will provide you with a tracking number and/or link sent to the email provided by you during checkout. This will also be available on your account on the store.
Please note, it may take up to 24 hours for the carrier to show the shipment in their respective system after we have given you your tracking information.
How do I report a damaged shipment?
While we take all necessary precautions and work with the best transport partners possible, sometimes our parcels and in the worst case their contents, unfortunately can get damaged or lost during transport.
If your shipment arrives damaged or an item is missing, we will of course provide you with assistance. Please contact our customer support staff via service@aimaudio.com and we will work through the report procedure together with you to resolve your issue as quickly as possible.
Until we have been able to resolve any claim for damaged packages, please do not dispose of the parcel and/or packaging material as it may be needed for a possible inspection by the relevant courier.

How should I package my return?
Note: this Packaging advice is meant to show you how to pack your return safely to avoid any damages to your property. Please take the time to read the below instructions and tips carefully, to ensure that your return arrives with us safely. In addition, we ask that you only use packing tape to seal your cardboard shipping box – masking tape, adhesive tape or pack-threads are not suitable for a secure seal and we will not be held accountable if your parcel is packed incorrectly.
If possible, please re-use the original shipping packaging and packing materials you received with your order, in an effort to save resources and minimise waste. While you can use crumpled newspaper to fill any empty space in the package, do not use this wrapping material for the product packaging. If re-using a cardboard box for return shipping, please make sure all old shipping labels and barcodes have been removed or blanked out.
Please follow the following steps to package your return:
- Prepare your shipping box and reinforce the bottom with packing tape.
- Pack the item in its original packaging if possible.
- Should the original packaging be no longer available, generously wrap it in bubblewrap and secure it with packing tape.
- Fill the bottom (approx. 5-10 cm) of the shipping carton with padding material such as air cushions or scrunched up paper.
- Place your packaged item into the shipping carton and add padding material around it on all sides including the top, to ensure it is held in place securely and cannot move around in the parcel during transport.
- Close and seal the lid of the shipping carton with packing tape along all open seams.
- Attach the return label so it is clearly visible on the outside of your parcel.
