VAT (Value Added Tax) and your Powtoon subscription

VAT (Value Added Tax) and your Powtoon subscription

Powtoon is a UK-registered company. This article explains when VAT (Value Added Tax) applies to your subscription purchase, how to enter a VAT number at checkout, and where UK tax rules differ.

When VAT is charged

VAT is charged at the prevailing rate for customers located within the European Union (EU). No tax is added to purchases made from outside the EU.

Note: Under UK tax law, VAT is added to all purchases made by UK customers. This applies even if you enter a valid VAT number at checkout — the VAT number exemption does not apply to UK-based purchases.

How to apply your VAT number at checkout

If you are an EU-based customer with a valid VAT number, you can enter it during checkout to remove VAT from your purchase.

1. Proceed to the checkout page for your chosen plan.
2. Locate the VAT number field and enter your full VAT number, including the country code prefix (for example, DE for Germany or FR for France).
3. Powtoon's system will verify the number automatically. If the number is valid, VAT will not be added to your order.

Note: Enter the complete VAT number including the country code. Incomplete numbers will not pass validation and VAT will be applied to your purchase.
