Was this information Helpful?

Hi guys,

I have searched and searched about this - and looked at what other shops did and have come up "empty" Sad

In Denmark (actually in the entire EU) you MUST show the price with VAT - or have a text stating, that the price is without VAT on every page that shows prices.
I'd like to avoid having a message all over, that says "price is excl. VAT", but the only way I can get the taxes module to work, is by adding VAT to the price given on the product.

Is it possible to make it simply calculate VAT as and generate a line like: Total includes xx DKK VAT (and then it doesn't change the total)?
the formula would simply be: total * 0,2 = VAT that is included in the price (danish VAT is 25% - so that's why it works Smiling

It may be easier

Hi Klavsk,

At the corner of the EU where I live (The Netherlands), we have the same requirement. As far as I am concerned, the standard way of solving this, is through mentioning in the footer of your Drupal site that prices are ex. VAT. To me, it is really that simple.

European Union VAT handling

Hi,

As far as we NEED to provide clear inc VAT prices for B2C, if ubercart aims to be a leading ecommerce solution, we need a good handling of EU VAT or other cases where prices my be ex VAT for some king of shop or inc VAT for others (or for different customers on the same shop).

Just telling "our prices are ex VAT" is not looking professional and trust-worthy for visitors.

This feature is really a gap for uc in Europ (against magento for example).

Thank you
