How To Sell Wine In Bond

Register and complete our seller form

To sell wine in bond with Wine Auctioneer, please follow the standard process by registering an account and submitting our Seller Form. In your submission, please indicate your intention to transfer in-bond wines. We will then register these wines to our bond account, a sub-account specific to you, and provide you with your Reserve Code.

Initiate transfer/delivery of consignment

Once you receive your Reserve Code, it is the seller's responsibility to initiate the transfer (between LCB accounts) or delivery (from another bonded warehouse provider to LCB) of the consignment. Make sure to use the Reserve Code for your personal Wine Auctioneer (LCB) sub-account during this process.

Sell your wine

Once you’re registered and we’ve received confirmation from LCB of the transfer of your in-bond wine, it will be listed in our next upcoming auction. Our team will then start promoting your bottles to our global audience of wine enthusiasts.

If your wine sells at auction, we’ll arrange secure payment within 21 days.

Benefits of Selling Wine In Bond

In addition to great in bond wines, we offer a user-friendly website, exceptionally competitive fees, a fast professional service and a partnership with one of the UK's oldest and most experienced bonded warehouses

  • Duty and VAT - Wines bought in bond have Duty and VAT deferred. If you wish to sell your wine in bond, you will not pay VAT and Duty unless removed from bond.
  • VAT efficiency - If you wish to have wine removed from bond in the future, then there is the benefit that VAT is payable on the initial sale price of the wine, not the current market value.
  • Provenance and tracking of ownership - Wines that have been stored in bond are much easier to track, raising confidence on provenance.
  • Secure, climate optimised bonded warehouse - When you buy or sell wine in bond with Wine Auctioneer, you have the option of storing it in our bonded warehouse, where you can be confident it will be cared for and handled properly in optimal facilities. The bonded warehouse is free from vibration, UV and daylight with bespoke temperature and humidity controls ideal for fine wine storage and maturation.
  • Demand for in-bond wine - Due to the provenance, tracking, reassurance in storage and Duty/VAT efficiencies, wines stored in bond are very attractive to prospective buyers. Therefore, secondary market prices will often achieve or exceed a similar value for regardless whether the Duty and VAT are paid.
