Hello all,
I'm not sure of the American situation with sales tax, but here in Europe we pay VAT (Sales) tax when we register a domain on GoDaddy. I don't know if this is the case with all registrars, as I recently registered a domain on Dynadot and VAT was not mentioned. Confusing.
My question comes in relation to selling domains to businesses with outbound marketing. I want to be able to answer any questions that the buyer may have, and if they're in Europe they may ask if the price includes VAT. If I was selling on GoDaddy marketplace then I would answer no, as I have read elsewhere on this forum that the buyer will be charged VAT by GoDaddy, on top of my sale price. But how does this work out on escrow services like escrow.com, Sedo, or Epik? If I can't give a clear answer to the buyer's question, I would feel unprofessional.
If anyone with experience selling to European buyers (or buyers elsewhere who may have to pay tax) can provide any info, that would be great. Thanks!
