Quote - I think you only pay sales tax for sales in your home state and VAT shouldn't be due as its a sale from outside of the EEC.

As of July 1st, 2003 VAT laws changed to include digital products sold in the US to customers in the EU. You've got to collect the tax which appears to be different for each country and forward it to the appropriate national taxing authority, which is different for each country. If paypal comes up with a service, like digibuy does, that keeps on top of all the rules, and handles all that for me, I'll add them.

Right now I believe to get educated in all that, get set up to collect tax for all the places I need to, and actually do it would take more time away from building product than I think I would recoup in sales to people who don't want to use one of the options digibuy offers.
