Hi All,

I just bought something from eBay and will be bring it oversea to a friend as a present.

The only invoice I got is from Paypal with no GST section.

Would I be able to clam the GST?

Note this is a Australia buyer that I am buying from.

Get the Australian seller to provide you with an invoice. If they aren't registered for GST i don't think you can get it back.

Was it a store or a private seller? If it was a private seller the answer is NO…

Yeah if you buy from a store on ebay they will include a tax invoice with their ABN and GST shown. Also, it it over the $300 threshold?

No tax invoice, no refund. Some sellers do not supply tax invoice for reasons known to them. Ask the seller for a tax invoice, or return and buy from someone who will supply a tax invoice.
