Figueres · Alt Empordà
Figueres, capital of Alt Empordà, thrives on commerce, Dalí Museum visitors and its role as the hinge between the northern Costa Brava and the French border. A well-crafted digital storefront lets local businesses capture both local customers and the constant flow of visitors.
Local context
French customers already know you: let them buy from you
The border is less than half an hour away and, since 2010, Figueres-Vilafant station has had direct high-speed trains to Paris. The Thursday market and town-centre shops see French shoppers every week, as well as Dalí Museum visitors. Many would buy again from home if the store spoke French and shipped their order. For cross-border sales, though, two things must be clear from the start: how goods are shipped and which VAT applies.
What it needs
Getting the store ready for France
VAT ready for the OSS threshold
While sales to consumers in other EU countries stay under €10,000 a year, Spanish VAT applies; above it, French VAT, declared through the One Stop Shop. We leave the store ready for the switch.
Product pages in real French
Product names, sizes, terms and automated emails in natural French, not just a translated menu.
Delivery or pickup in town
Some customers prefer to order online and collect on their next trip to Figueres. We offer both options in the same cart.
