When is VAT applied to domain transactions?
The application of Value-Added Tax (VAT) on domain transactions through Efty Pay depends on several factors, primarily the locations and statuses of both the buyer and the seller.
Key Factors Influencing VAT Application
- Location of Buyer and Seller:
The geographical locations of the buyer and seller are crucial in determining if VAT is applicable.
Status of Buyer and Seller:
- Whether the buyer and seller are acting as businesses or individuals affects the VAT application.
General Guidelines
- Domestic Transactions: When both parties are in the same country, VAT is typically applied according to that country's local VAT laws.
- International Transactions: For cross-border transactions, the VAT rules can vary widely depending on the countries involved and whether the transaction is between businesses (B2B) or between a business and a consumer (B2C).
Efty Pay’s Role
- Automated Calculation: Efty Pay calculates VAT based on the locations and statuses of the buyer and seller to ensure compliance with relevant laws.
- Transparent Display: VAT charges, if applicable, are clearly shown before the transaction is finalized.
Important Note
