Is tax included in the price when I buy a subscription?

Whether tax or Value-Added Tax (VAT) is included in your Kahoot! subscription depends on your location and the type of plan you are purchasing. Read on to understand how taxes are calculated for your specific account and region.

Are taxes included for U.S. and non-EEA customers?

For customers based in the USA or located outside the EU/EEA, Kahoot! may be required to add tax or VAT to your charge based on your specific state or country.

How to claim tax-exempt status: If your organization is tax-exempt, you must contact Kahoot! support before you finalize your payment. If we can verify your tax-exempt status and register it appropriately in our system, we will ensure you are not charged tax.

How is VAT calculated for EU and EEA customers?

For customers based in the EU or EEA, regional regulations require us to collect VAT unless a valid VAT number is provided during the purchase authorization.

• VAT is calculated based on your physical location or the location of your payment provider.
• Unless explicitly required by your country's laws, VAT will not be calculated or displayed prior to processing a charge.

To better understand European regulations, you can review the official EU VAT guidelines.

Is VAT included for Personal use?

If you use Kahoot in a personal setting, the pricing/feature pages showing you different subscription options will include the VAT (tax), and the local VAT will be visible in the summary prior to purchase on the payment page. 

Is VAT included for Business and Work use?

The pricing for businesses excludes VAT. To make sure you are not charged VAT directly on top of the prices shown, it’s absolutely necessary that the correct VAT number for your company is provided to us (for EU / EEA customers). If you are experiencing errors adding or updating your VAT number, please find more information, and double-check the validity of your VAT number here.

On your billing page, the license prices may exclude VAT, and just show the plan cost excluding VAT. However, the VAT charged will be listed on your invoice.
