Where is VAT added to my invoice?
How VAT is calculated for your location, how to enter your VAT number, and where to find your invoices.

VAT on your order
All prices shown on this site are before VAT. Whether VAT is added depends on where you are:
- UK: 20% VAT is added to your total.
- EU with a VAT number: If your VAT number is valid (confirmed through VIES), reverse charge applies and no VAT is added.
- EU without a VAT number: VAT at your country's rate is added.
- Elsewhere: No UK VAT is added.
The VAT, if any, is shown on the payment page before you complete your purchase.
Entering your VAT number
If you are an EU business with a valid VAT number, enter it at checkout or later in /account/billing. The VIES service checks it at that moment. If the check cannot be completed, VAT is charged—you will be told this on screen.
Your invoices
Invoices are issued by Zinn Digital® Ltd (UK) and sent to you after payment. You can access all invoices and credit notes in /account/invoices. Each document is available as a PDF. UK VAT numbers, where applicable, are printed on your invoice.
Questions people ask
- Do I need to provide a VAT number?
- Only if you are an EU business. Entering a valid VAT number means reverse charge applies and VAT is not added. If you do not have one, VAT at your country's rate will be added to your order.
- What happens if my VAT number cannot be verified?
- If the VIES service cannot confirm your number at checkout, VAT is charged to your order. You will see this notification before you pay.
- Where do I find my invoice after payment?
- Log in and go to /account/invoices to download all your invoices and credit notes as PDFs.
