Hello dear forum community, Recently someone drove me back in the car with the rear, the debt question is definitely sunny. After that I turned on my own expert because this is open to me as a victim. From this report I see now the following: expert costs 313.45€ replacement value with VAT 1000€ residual value with VAT 10€ repair costs without VAT 763.95€ repair costs with VAT 909.10€ Now I got from the DEVK a letter that the With the following list. Repair costs 763,95€ Expert fees 313,45€ Flat-rate costs 15,00€ —————- 1092,40€ With the following note: In case of billing on the basis of an expert opinion or estimate, the VAT cannot be refunded according to the law of damages as amended from 1.8.2002. Now to my question it is right that I get the repair costs refunded only without VAT,because if I I have to pay VAT, of course? Greetings Asrael
