VAT and tax rules.

VAT rules determine how much you pay for fortrabbit services depending on your location and business status. EU businesses with valid VATIN can claim reverse charge to avoid upfront VAT costs.

Fiscal implications

fortrabbit prices are net prices excluding VAT, and VAT application depends on your location, business status, and whether you hold a valid VATIN.

  • Prices are shown as net prices, without Value Added Tax (VAT).
  • No VAT is charged for customers outside the EU.
  • No VAT is charged for a registered business in the EU (+ GB) with a valid VATIN.
  • VAT is charged for VAT-registered business in Germany

VATIN for EU clients

It's recommended to enter your VATIN (Value Added Tax Identification Number), sometimes referenced as VAT TAX ID or similar. This way you save upfront costs for VAT — reverse charge makes this possible. Add the VATIN with the payment method, see here.

EU VAT exemption

We may not charge VAT, if article 151(1)(a) VAT Directive applies, e.g. for international bodies, embassies or other EU organizations with a valid VAT exemption certificate. Please get in touch if VAT exemption applies to your organization.
