This information is only relavant
for customers with a physical address inside the European
Union.
In accordance with European Union
law, all customers with a
physical address inside the European Union pay VAT
on services, software and other downloads at the
standard rate of 17.5%.
All prices on our
websites INCLUDE VAT (where applicable).
Please ignore the rest of this page unless you are
interested in the technical details of how the VAT is
calculated
Technical Details
Of VAT Calculations
Most companies charge extra to
European customers for VAT, which means that European
customers are forced to pay more than anyone else for the
exact same thing.
For business reasons, we don't do
this. Instead, we charge all
customers the same, but for European customers,
we allocate a proportion of the purchase price as
VAT.
Technically this means that we give European customers a
special discount equivalent to the amount of VAT, so that when
the VAT is then added, the total payment is the same as for
non-European customers.
The following details explain how this is processed...
For customers with a physical address inside the
European Union, the customer
is effectively given a special discount off the
purchase price and then VAT is added to this discounted price. The result of this process is that
customers with a physical address inside the European Union
pay exactly the same amount as customers with a physical
address outside the European Union, but part of the price
is allocated as VAT. This
process happens automatically (managed by our web server)
based on the physical address provided by the customer during
the order process.
Example: Software or service priced at
$37.00
For customers with a physical
address outside the European Union: Customer simply pays
$37.00.
For customers with a physical address inside the
European Union:
Customer still pays $37.00, but this is
automatically processed as
$37.00 minus special
discount of $5.51 = $31.49
plus VAT of $5.51 =
$37.00
VAT
Exemption
We sell primarily to individuals and do not have any
special mechanism in place for VAT registered companies. If
you are buying on behalf of a VAT registered company,
you may still order from us, but you will not be
able to reclaim the VAT. This is similar to buying something
from an ordinary (offline) shop, where you get a till receipt
(not a VAT invoice) allowing you to claim the full
payment against tax, but not allowing you to reclaim the
VAT.
