VAT Information for European Residents

(Updated July 2025 – in alignment with Estonia’s tax framework)

📌 What Is VAT?

VAT (Value-Added Tax) is a consumption tax applied to most goods and digital services sold within the European Union (EU). If you reside in the EU and purchase a digital product like Osher’s AstroLive Charts, VAT is legally required and automatically calculated at checkout based on your country’s rate.

 

🇪🇪 Estonia’s Current VAT Rate

As of July 1, 2025, Estonia’s standard VAT rate is 24%.
This applies to all digital services sold by Estonian companies to EU customers.

Example:
If a LiveChart is listed at €100, and you're based in France, your final price will be €124 (inclusive of VAT).

 

 

🌍 Who Pays VAT?

  • EU Residents:
    You will see VAT added automatically at checkout, in accordance with EU law.

  • Non-EU Residents:
    No VAT will be applied. You pay only the listed price.

  • EU Businesses with VAT ID:
    If you’re buying on behalf of a business with a valid VAT number, please contact us before purchase for a possible VAT-exempt invoice under the reverse-charge mechanism.

 

🔍 Can VAT Be Avoided?

VAT is not a penalty — it’s a structural part of the EU’s digital economy. However, we understand that:

  • Some individuals value sovereignty in how they access digital tools

  • Others live or operate nomadically, outside traditional systems

  • And many seek boundaryless methods to exchange value in today’s fluid world

If you're exploring off-platform alternatives or seeking more discreet payment solutions for symbolic tools like LiveCharts, we invite you to reach out.

We can’t promise exemption — but we can offer guidance toward conscious, compliant, and flexible pathways that respect your location, rhythm, and resonance.
