We specialize only in remote controls development, selling and repairs. Serving the whole of Europe since 2009. ....................................................................... Unusual atypical remotes are easy for us!! Seriously, we can create any remote control for every device, with the same functions and the same button names as original RC! .............................................................................. Thousands models of brand original remote controls in our stock. .................................................................................. We only want positive reviews and we will do everything for that. If you are not satisfied with our product, please give us a chance to solve the problem before giving us a bad rating. As manufacturers, unlike resellers, we can analyze the problem, reprogram the product, or recommend another model/type (exchange is free!). Please understand that the development and production of a compatible replacement part is much more demanding than an easy "buy-sell" business model. A replacement remote control must not only be of high quality but, most importantly, must be COMPATIBLE with the product. If your remote control is not working, it is usually because it is a wrong incomatible type, not because it is defective. ................................................................................... Do not hesitate to contact us anytime on orders@remote-control-world.eu. We answer within 24 hours. If you need an immediate answer ask our experienced technician (no chat bot) in the online chat on our website 9 a.m - 9 p.m. .............................................................................. Pls note: on Mondays we are more busy (we deal with inquiries from the weekend) and we are not able to answer emails within 24 hours as usual.

Remote Control reasonably priced, easily suited for the TV
Here it is easy to find a Remote Control that is suitable for an old TV set. I liked that experiance. The remote is working well. The buttons are a bit loose, but I accept that as a trade-off for the price. There is no "settings" button that was available on the original though...

Dear Customer,
We are very sorry to hear about your experience. We would like to clarify that the import duty charge is set by the government of your country and is not determined by our company. Unfortunately, we have no control over these customs fees, and we are unable to influence them.
All shipments are dispatched promptly and with tracking, and we always provide the relevant information about shipping and import requirements. We also respond to emails and live chat inquiries within 24 hours, so it is always possible to reach us directly for any clarification or guidance regarding customs charges.
We understand that unexpected import costs are frustrating, and we sympathize with your situation. Our team is committed to helping customers navigate any questions about shipping, but customs fees are beyond our control.
We hope this explanation helps clarify the situation.
Kind regards,

VAT supports great old sound equipment!
We have old graphic equalizer which is excellent—it shows no signs of aging and gives us great sound even though it’s 20 years old. The remote? It died years ago. Finally this year using the volume button at all it would give us ‘surprise results’: up, down, mute? And then would lock like that. We have been looking for a replacement for 6 years? People kept telling us that to get a new remote we’d have to buy a whole new equalizer. Then last month—as I looked again for a replacement I discovered VAT. Problem solved! No fussing—VAT said it would work, guaranteed we’d be satisfied and then shipped the solution to us. If you have great old tech but the accessories are failing? Go to VAT. Easy fixes, excellent prices and excellent follow through. VAT will be the first place I look the next time my tech starts to age out.

Remote doesn’t work
Edit - Claimed back through my bank. Company lied saying they sent a replacement, all they actually did was forward the original purchase email. Offered a partial refund if I closed the case there and then.
Truly awful, dishonest behaviour.
Company have tried to have this genuine experience pulled down, whilst failing to do anything about the faulty remotes they send out.
Remote doesn’t work. No one responds.
Now having to wait to claim back through my bank.
Edit. So you ignore messages but will contact trust pilot to try and have this taken down. STILL no working remote and no refund after nearly a month.

My order is still pending since January 02, 2026
In January 02, 2026 I prepaid for 3 pieces of AIR-LUXURY-luxair remote controls. Abt a week later the company confirmed that my original remote control was in their hands and my order should proceed asap.
After all these months my order is still pending. Despite the emails and the online service contacts, no one gives a clear answer. The usual answer is that the technical department is aware abt the delay of my order due to large amount of orders and if I want to cancel my order.
Really? Is this a reasonable respond to patient customers?
UPDATE:
I eventually was forced to cancel my order. My original remote control status which should have been returned is uncertain. I never received it. No one gives an answer or a respond. They just don't care. One of the worst experiences EVER!
2nd UPDATE (June 08, 2026):
It's hard to believe what you replied back after all these months of ghosting. But for a freaky strange reason I intend to believe you, even if deeply in my thoughts the more logical thing is to ghost me again for 5-6 months. I realy don't know what to expect. If you do what you wrote(?) then this will be trully a crazy twisted and unexpected evolve.
Maybe miracles happen, don't know what else to say or believe. Let's see how this will go...

Dear Customer,
We are truly sorry to hear about your frustration and the experience you had. We always strive to provide prompt, reliable service and it is disappointing to learn that you felt let down.
Regarding your order, we want to explain that your remote control required custom programming tailored to your original device. This is a highly specialized process that takes more time than a standard shipment. Additionally, due to incomplete technical documentation for your device, our team needed extra time to verify the correct programming and ensure full compatibility. Both of these factors contributed to the delay in delivery.
We understand that waiting for a long time is frustrating, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Please know that we are fully committed to delivering a fully functional remote control and ensuring your satisfaction.
Your feedback is important to us, and while we acknowledge the challenges you experienced, we hope this context clarifies the situation. We greatly value each of our customers and remain committed to handling every order with care and attention.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Kind regards,

Impressed! Will use again
This is the only company that could provide me with a replacement remote for our very specific air conditioning unit.
Initially the remote did not work, but they worked diligently and efficiently to make sure we got the replacement we required.
I 10/10 recommend , as they will not disappoint and will work to resolve any issues until it is truly resolved.
Very Impressed!
