Training: general

Why does ProZ.com sometimes charge VAT tax on training courses purchased from within the EU?

This question only affects members in Europe.

If, when purchasing a training course from within the European Union, a member does not supply a VAT number which can be verified online, ProZ.com is obliged by law to collect VAT tax against the purchase made, according to the VAT rate applicable in the country of the purchaser.

If a VAT number is supplied, no VAT tax is charged.
