French boat, VAT proof

[anonymous8462529047262]

When I bought a boat from France I asked that the douanes annotate the radiation du pavillon français form with "TVA payé" which they were happy to do (the broker arranged this). I had the original lease document but thought that the extra belt and braces wouldn't do any

+1 I did exactly the same with my last boat, bought in France. Again, all arranged by the broker.

when did you do this please? trying to see if can arrange the same now.
