To my opinion your seller has a problem, he forgot to charge the MWST to you and so the government will ask him to pay.
Most likely they will take it that the sales price that he charged to you was a price including tax and so he will have to pay the 16 percent out of this sale price. That is his problem now!

You, however, have a valid purchase contract with a valid price in it and it is not your problem or your fault.
If you seller wants to have the Abmeldebescheinigung, send it to him and get out of the case.

Absolutelly, thats the point. Its the sellers duty to pay VAT to the state in this case. You fixed a price with him and he, if he acts as a company, has to pay from this money the 16% VAT. Dont get fooled. if he asked you to pay VAT, dont do it !



Take care,
