    They need to fix their part of the system as they calculate vat on any person even if it's a private citizen anywhere in the world or a business. It's what they have to fix in their billing system and we're pressuring them to fix this ASAP or we will terminate using paddle. As it's double work for us too.

    I have a question why do you and a many other providers always proudly show upload speed, but many not showing what the download speed is, is that because you know that people ordering it who are still a little green don't realize that the servers upload is not referring to the customers download it's referring to the server's user uploading files to the server

    10 Gbps uplink

    If I understand well, what you're saying is that 3+ months later, your customers -- or at least your EU customers -- are still being charged twice for VAT. Is this what you're saying?

    Hi Angstrom, no, once. But Paddle taxes(adds) UK vat as they say they are record of merchant. So we don't calculate the VAT for EU business or NON-EU residents (0%) but paddle automatically add UK tariff. I told them it's incorrect. But they need to make some kind of script in their backend checks the location of the payment/buyer to make sure that the VAT does not get calculated.

  • ehabehab Member

    this double VAT issue existed since April.2024
    i ordered, didn't pay, i had opened ticket and then they fixed the amount.

    but you (still) double-vat for EU residents, correct? it was a pain in the arse to solve this issue with paddle.
    in the beginning you were referred back and forth from paddle to vpsslim then back to paddle. lots of emails. very annoying and customer unfriendly from paddle. but initially the problem for me was with vpsslim.

    Of course, I was addressing @VPSSLIM , not you :) -- I understand that you (as a private EU customer) were charged VAT twice

    When I asked @VPSSLIM above, he seemed to say that it was no longer an issue, and yet customers seem to say otherwise, so I wanted to clarify (again) what the situation is

But they need to make some kind of script in their backend checks the location of the payment/buyer to make sure that the VAT does not get calculated.

    WHCMS (your configuration) adds VAT and then your payment processor adds VAT. This results in double VAT. If you removed VAT within your prices and ensured all your processors added VAT accordingly, you would not have this problem. In fact, it's not an issue any other host seems to have on this forum.

    Additionally, if you contacted Paddle and provided the correct documentation, this would already have been resolved for you. You are adding VAT onto the cost of the item and then charging VAT on this final calculated amount.

    Don't make excuses for something that's clearly tilted for your benefit and hasn't been addressed in a timely manner.

    In simple cases, fraudsters sell the goods, charge the VAT to buyers without remitting the value to the tax authorities.

    The business is responsible for charging VAT (if applicable) on goods and services and paying this money forward to their tax authorities. The only exception tends to be B2B sales. This is pretty much how it works anywhere in Europe. Not all businesses are VAT registered and not all need to be - this varies in terms of criteria amongst countries.

    i already understood you. i just wanted to emphasize once again how this went down and, as i understand vpsslim, how it continues to go down, because he does not make a clear statement about the double taxation of eu private individuals.

    https://www.paddle.com/blog/what-is-merchant-of-record pretty clearly explains how it should work: customer buys from Paddle (they add VAT as appropriate), Paddle buys from VPSSLIM (no VAT)

    The business is responsible for charging VAT (if applicable) on goods and services and paying this money forward to their tax authorities. The only exception tends to be B2B sales. This is pretty much how it works anywhere in Europe. Not all businesses are VAT registered and not all need to be: this varies in terms of criteria amongst countries.

    then paddle seems to be the problem, because they have added VAT.

    No, because HostSlim are also adding VAT onto the total purchase price at checkout. Paddle are then adding VAT as this is how their product works. HostSlim don't need to automatically add VAT before checkout and neither do they need to use Paddle.

    From an accounting point of view and the fact that VAT returns need to be matched with invoices (VAT must be itemised), something is very off here. VAT is money businesses collect on behalf of authorities when selling goods and services. It is not 'theirs'.

    has the issue of the double VAT calculation now actually been finally clarified with paddle or is the VAT still being added twice?! @VPSSLIM

    They need to fix their part of the system as they calculate vat on any person even if it's a private citizen anywhere in the world or a business. It's what they have to fix in their billing system and we're pressuring them to fix this ASAP or we will terminate using paddle. As it's double work for us too.

    If I understand well, what you're saying is that 3+ months later, your customers -- or at least your EU customers -- are still being charged twice for VAT. Is this what you're saying?

    Hi Angstrom, no, once. But Paddle taxes(adds) UK vat as they say they are record of merchant. So we don't calculate the VAT for EU business or NON-EU residents (0%) but paddle automatically add UK tariff. I told them it's incorrect. But they need to make some kind of script in their backend checks the location of the payment/buyer to make sure that the VAT does not get calculated.

    Just to be clear about what you're saying, if a private (non-business) customer from German or France or Belgium or the Netherlands or Finland or another EU country orders a service from you, then they are not charged double VAT. Is this what you're saying?

    i'm saying that in this particular case, whoever vpsslim or paddle was charging the vat again. the question is, who is responsible for charging the vat? is it vpsslim or its payment service provider paddle?

    https://www.paddle.com/blog/what-is-merchant-of-record pretty clearly explains how it should work: customer buys from Paddle (they add VAT as appropriate), Paddle buys from VPSSLIM (no VAT)

    if that's the case, then vpsslim is the problem. the good thing is that this topic is now being discussed!

    I asked @VPSSLIM to clarify this issue back on 16 October ( https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4040937/#Comment_4040937 ) and then again on 27 November ( https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4100645/#Comment_4100645 ), but the response was silence

    someone please post or dm your ip address of this vps offer, i want to check for packet loss. I have a 12eur/year vps and it has 2% average packet loss with rare spikes, it's unpleasant to use, I wonder if this offer is better or the same
