If you are a photographer who has non-US labs selected as your lab with products delivered to the EU and you are accepting payments yourself, you may be able to add your VAT or GST number to check where the tax is or is not required. For example, if you are registered in the EU and are working with an EU lab, VAT tax is not required.
Please Note: Currently only Canadian photographers using GTA Imaging and collecting payments themselves can add their VAT/business number. More international labs will be added on a rolling basis.
Add Tax Number, SSN, or VAT
1. To add your tax number, SSN, or VAT, from your Main Dashboard go to Settings.
2. In the Plans & Billing tab, add your VAT number in the Tax Number field. Do NOT include any spaces in your Tax Number.
The system will check your VAT tax with the labs you’ve selected in your Store Pricing and you'll see the Pending verification message. If you've correctly entered your tax number, it will then say Verified.
Depending on your location, you may not be required to validate your tax number or VAT number. If you think it is required of you, double-check that you’ve set up your Address correctly in your Profile. Learn more here.
In the Store Pricing
When selecting labs in your Store Pricing, you’ll see a warning if you will be charged a tax.
Where can I see VAT charges to my account?
Under Sales & Automation > Billing History, you’ll see the VAT tax broken down as part of the Order production cost. If the order has labs from multiple locations with different tax requirements, you’ll see these as three separate charges from each lab.
