DROPSHIPPING THROUGH BOL, IS IT POSSIBLE?
We are regularly asked by entrepreneurs whether it is also possible to do dropshipping on bol. If you do a Google search, you get several answers. One website indicates that it is possible to dropship through bol, while another website indicates that it is not. Fortunately, bol itself already gives the answer and it is definitively not possible to dropship through bol.
Bol itself states the following about this (source):”Dropshipping: consider not delivering from their own stock or delivering via and/or in the packaging of another platform or store.” They then go on to explain this: “Delivering from outside the EU is one of the categories of policy violations we monitor. This policy is there because of the VAT rules that apply throughout the European Union.” So simply put, dropshipping through Bol.com is not possible.
Fortunately, as an entrepreneur, you can get a piece of bol’s success by signing up as a seller.
SELLING ON BOL, WITHOUT DROPSHIPPING
Bol is very popular in the Netherlands and Belgium and has huge name recognition. Ask any Dutch person on the street to name three major online stores in the Netherlands and chances are very high that bol is among them. You now know that it is not possible to dropship through bol, but fortunately it is possible to offer your products on the platform. One condition is that you supply the products you want to sell from your own stock. With dropshipping this is not the case, so dropshipping via bol is automatically not possible. Do you have the products in stock yourself? Then you can start selling on Bol!
