Sales tax VAT – what it is and how it works and how it affects your work pricing?
-VAT is a consumption tax and it will be added to the works price, service price or product price by seller (VAT 0-24%).
-VAT depends on the branch were the seller is working: 0%, 10% or 24%.
-VAT is determined by seller’s branch. VAT is always paid by buyer, who buys work, product or service even if the buyer is private person or a company.
Seller is acting as a collector for the tax authorities and settles the tax ful-ly to tax office.
-VAT is named as a consumption tax, because consumpter pays the full VAT amount and cannot reduce it in own tax description.
– Company, regtereed to VAT registration can reduce the VAT in its own tax settlement and gets that way the paid tax back.
Example 1 – you are invoicing private persons using the invoicing service.
You make an invoice in the invoicing service of your work with a total amount €1000 + 24%VAT agreed with your client. Private person receives an invoice total 1240€ including 240€ VAT.
When your client pays the invoice, the invoicing service will settle VAT 240€ to the tax office and the sum without tax is the base for your salary.
For a private person the cost of your work is 1240€, because he cannot reduce the tax in his tax declaration.
Example 2 – you are invoicing company using the invoicing service.
You make an invoice in the invoicing service of your work with a total amount €1000 + 24%VAT agreed with your client. the company receives an invoice total 1240€ including 240€ VAT.
When your client pays the invoice, the invoicing service will settle VAT 240€ to the tax office and the sum without tax is the base for your salary.
When your client pays the invoice, the invoicing service will settle VAT 240€ to the tax office and the sum without tax is the base for your salary.
The company makes its own tax declaration and declares 240€ as a paid tax (VAT) and tax office will return the paid tax back to the company.
For a company the cost of your work 1000€ because tax office returns the paid tax to the company.
How VAT affects to your salary?
VAT is not a part of your salary. VAT 24% is a tax and belongs totally to the tax office and when invoicing through an invoicing service, the invoi-cing service is obliged to settle the paid tax to the tax office.
Please note, when pricing your work to inform and agree with your client if the price is including VAT24% or not and inform the client which tax ra-te is in your invoice (0%, 10% or 24%).
