How your share is calculated
Your share is calculated on the amount remaining after any sales tax (VAT) due in the buyer's country has been deducted. The rate depends on where the buyer is — e-books are zero-rated in the United Kingdom and taxed at 0–11% in most EU countries, though a few charge more (Italy 22%, Denmark 25%, Hungary 27%). We are registered for EU VAT through the One-Stop-Shop scheme (registered in Ireland, effective 10 August 2026), so VAT is deducted on sales to buyers in the EU.
