VAT is a tax collected by the state, non-reducible, which varies according to each country.
To know how it will be taken into account when placing an order:
If you are located in a non-European country, you will be charged without VAT.
If your company is located in the European Union (excluding France) and you have an intra-community number, you will be charged without VAT.
If you are located in the EU, but do not have an intra-community number, you will be charged with a 20% VAT.
If you are located in France, in all cases, you will be charged with 20% VAT: the intra-community VAT number does not apply.
No matter the country where you deliver your orders, it is the place where you are located that counts.
In summary, it is possible to obtain a VAT exemption if you have a company registered in the EU and a valid VAT number or if your company is located outside the EU.
In the TPOP application, under your preferences, you can enter your intra-community VAT number at the bottom of the screen.
Your VAT number will then be verified in the European Commission's VIES VAT number database.
If the number is validated, your orders will then be charged without VAT.
