We can wrap the piece in bubble wrap for the trip home, nothing more.
Arrange Your Own Shipping
That’s fine too. Below are a few independent shipping companies based in Spain you’re welcome to contact directly — we’re happy to help with paperwork either way.
Export Tax & Duties
Import duties, VAT and export tax (where applicable) remain the buyer’s responsibility regardless of how shipping is arranged. For shipments from Spain to non-EU countries, export tax may apply depending on the artwork’s age and value:
| Category | Threshold |
|---|---|
| Paintings, 50+ years old | €150,000 |
| Watercolours, gouaches, pastels, 50+ years | €30,000 |
| Drawings & graphic works, 50+ years | €15,000 |
| Any artwork over 100 years old | Always may apply |
No export tax applies to shipments within the EU. We’re happy to help you obtain an export licence where one is required — any fees involved remain the buyer’s responsibility. If you arrange your own shipping, export documentation is agreed directly with your chosen provider.
