Different numbering systems!

Addressing

Territorial groupings

• California and Nevada
• European Union
• Germany and a set of Austrian postal codes (6691, 6991, 6992, 6993)
• Austria without specific postal codes (6691, 6991, 6992, 6993)

Problem #1: What are my rates?

Problem #1.1: 2015 VOES

• VAT on Electronically Supplied Services
• When selling a digital product, VAT is due at the place of the customer.
• From 2015 this applies to EVERYONE.

Problem #2: Percentages change

Problem #3: Tax zones

German VAT is used in Germany and 5 Austrian postal codes.

Austrian VAT is used in Austria without those 5 postal codes.

Problem #4: Charging the correct rate

• B2B or B2C?
• Physical or digital product?
• Registered for tax in additional countries?
• Place of supply
