Summary: How VAT and sales tax are handled at VPSDime, added automatically at payment, and how your VAT or GST number appears on invoices.

## What this is

How tax is applied to your VPSDime payments.

## How tax is added

Any **VAT or sales tax** that applies to you is **calculated and added automatically at the payment page**, based on your location. You don't need to do anything: the amount is shown before you pay, and it's collected as part of the payment.

## Your VAT or GST number

You can add a **VAT Number** or **GST Number** on your [Account Details](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/account-details). Once saved, it appears on your future invoices, which is handy for business and tax records.

**To have tax removed from a payment, enter your VAT or GST number on the payment form when you pay.** Saving it on Account Details adds it to your invoices, but the exemption is applied only when you enter the number on the payment form at checkout.

## Things worth knowing

- The tax shown depends on your billing location and local rules.
- Adding your VAT/GST number puts it on future invoices; keeping it correct is up to you.

## Troubleshooting

- **Tax was added to my payment.** That's the VAT or sales tax for your location, added automatically.
- **My VAT number isn't on my invoice.** Add it on [Account Details](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/account-details); it appears on invoices generated after you save it.
- **My tax wasn't exempted even though I saved my VAT number.** Saving it on Account Details only puts it on your invoices. To be exempted, enter the number on the **payment form** when you pay.
- **Can you add my VAT number to an invoice I already paid?** No. Paid invoices can't be re-issued, so a VAT or GST number can't be added to them after the fact. Save your number on [Account Details](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/account-details) and it appears on invoices generated from then on.
