I live in Portugal and have Portuguese residency. I’m looking at a boat that is registered in Belgium, the owner bought it New in South Africa in 2003 and has had it registered in Belgium since then. I have asked the broker for proof of EU vat paid but am not convinced by the document he has sent me. The Portuguese are sticklers for paperwork. How can I get confirmation the document is sufficient proof of vat paid? I have contacted the Portuguese authorities by email but had no response.
