Do I pay taxes or VAT?

It depends on your location and your tax registration status. Here are the possible scenarios:

  • Based in the UK: Yes. At the current rate of 20%
  • Based outside UK and outside Europe (e.g. Australia, USA): No.
  • Based outside UK and inside Europe
    • You are registered for Tax/VAT in your country and you supply the tax registration details in the Checkout page: No.
    • You are not a registered business or you do not supply tax registration details in the Checkout page: Yes - taxes are charged at the rate for your country.

If you need further clarification on this, please discuss with your accountant as we are not in a position to offer accounting/financial advice.
