For B2C (Business to Customer) transactions, the customer’s location determines the amount of VAT to be charge according to local VAT rules on Digital Services. For instance, in the EU, VAT MOSS scheme applies for the supply of telecommunications, broadcasting and electronic services (TBE) to customers (non-taxable persons).

On the subject of the VAT for EU residents - All companies who sell anything to an EU resident are required by EU law to collect a tax from those residents at the rate specified by the resident's country, which is then forwarded to HM Revenue & Customs when the VAT return is filed, regardless of what country the company is headquartered in. Digital purchases are not exempt from this tax.
Any questions about a company not charging VAT for EU residents should be forwarded to that specific company, as only they can answer that question. Any other questions about companies collecting VAT can be forwarded to your local tax authority.New R2 Community Discord Server: https://discord.gg/VFMzFDqKq5

We all know that taxes go to governments, so what right do you have to force players from different countries to pay your government tax? Isn't this alone a so much illegal? [Redacted - ask them that question directly]? Should we, players, whom you are trying to keep by your side sue you for this?

I don't care about the tax but whether the wartune starts again or not, please tell me don't rob me of my time I'm waiting I'm waiting but nothing worthwhile says no one I'm very angry
