Prices and VAT
The prices you see on Tavero are before VAT. We add VAT only where it applies to you:
- UK customers: 20 percent UK VAT is added at checkout.
- EU businesses: If you have a VAT number registered in VIES, we reverse charge and add no VAT.
- EU consumers: VAT at your country's rate is added.
- Rest of the world: No UK VAT is added.
You'll always see the VAT amount on the payment page before you decide to pay.
Entering your VAT number
If you're VAT registered, add your number at checkout or in /account/billing. The VIES system checks it at that moment. If it can't be confirmed right then, VAT is charged and you'll be told.
Your invoices
Zinn Digital® Ltd (UK) issues all invoices and sends them by email after you've paid. You can download every invoice and credit note as a PDF anytime in /account/invoices.
Think of Tavero as your shop window on the high street—we keep all the paperwork tidy so you can focus on your customers.
