Do you pay Swiss import VAT and customs charges when ordering from Medimops?
Medimops sells from Germany and shows no Swiss VAT line at checkout, so import VAT and a carrier fee land on the buyer. On a CHF 400 order that is roughly CHF 32 VAT plus about CHF 16 handling, or near CHF 10 VAT if the order is only books.
Confidence is low because the shop's shipping and FAQ pages could not be rendered, so the verdict rests on the absence of any Swiss VAT statement and on third-party descriptions. Sources also disagree on whether Switzerland is a delivery country at all.
The shop's own pages state free shipping from EUR 19 within Germany, and nothing else about Switzerland that could be read. The shipping page and the FAQ at medimops.de load their content through JavaScript and returned empty text, so no Swiss VAT or customs clause could be confirmed. The published terms of sale contain no mention of Swiss import charges or duty-paid delivery.
Medimops may not offer Switzerland as a delivery country at checkout, in which case no order and no import charge arises.
