Quoted GAC 9810 definition. Destination VAT is pointed to sell-to DE/UK/US; this page does not invent destination rates.
📋 Direct Answer
9810 only describes the Chinese customs model: goods leave China for an overseas warehouse, then platform sales deliver them to buyers from that warehouse. It does not decide VAT, GST or sales tax in the destination country. Stock sitting in Germany, the UK or the US is a local supply question — start from /sell-to/de, /sell-to/uk or /sell-to/us. Marketplace collection at checkout still does not automatically cancel a local registration test.

- 2The code does not grant or cancel a VAT refund; invoices and eligibility still decide the China-side tax
- 39810 additionally needs the overseas-warehouse business-model filing at local customs
