All prices on the Freethought website include any applicable sales tax. The amount of tax included in your invoice depends on your billing address and whether you are purchasing as a business or an individual. Depending on your own tax registration status, you may be able to reclaim this tax.

  • United Kingdom: VAT is charged at the standard UK rate of 20%.
  • European Union – consumers and non-VAT-registered businesses: VAT is charged at the standard rate of your own EU member state.
  • European Union – VAT-registered businesses: Once you provide a valid EU VAT number, no VAT is charged and you pay the advertised price excluding VAT. You account for VAT yourself under the reverse charge mechanism.
  • Rest of the world: No tax is charged.

Because our advertised prices include tax, the total you pay is the same wherever you are located, except for EU VAT-registered businesses as described above. Where no tax applies, no part of the price is paid to a tax authority.

If EU VAT-registered customers actually pay the same total as everyone else, just with no VAT shown on the invoice, use these two lines instead:

  • EU line: “Once you provide a valid EU VAT number, no VAT is charged. You account for VAT yourself under the reverse charge mechanism.”
  • Final paragraph: “…the total you pay is the same wherever you are located and whatever your tax status…”
