FAQ

Why do I have to pay VAT now when I didn’t before?

According to EU VAT directives (Articles 358a to 369 Directive 2006/112/EC), Elementor is obliged to collect VAT for services purchased by users established in European countries. We have updated our tax compliance according to these new regulations.

Am I eligible for an EU VAT exemption?

You can check with the VIES system to see if you have a valid VAT exemption.

How is the EU VAT calculated?

The VAT is based on product cost with the rate dependent on the country of your billing address. This amount is added separately from the product cost. When buying an item that costs $X, you will see a total of $X during checkout, with the VAT listed separately.

When a valid VAT number is added in checkout, or in subscription billing information, no VAT will be added to the total charge.

Are you going to charge me for previous years?

No! You will not be charged VAT for previous years. The VAT will be added only for purchases made after the new policy updates.
