Hello everybody!
Something a bit annoying for the wallet of half of you in July: The tax laws are changing. Depending on the country/state you live in, you will have an extra charge of Value-Added Tax. In USA, it should be 4% of your pledge ($0.3 on a $5 pledge).
European people can ignore that news. We pay it already to take some money to Amazon, etc. What counts is not the country of the company anymore BUT the country of the customer.
More data here but shortly it's around 10%, in these place:
36 states of USA
Australia
Belarus
Iceland
India
Japan
New Zealand
Norway
Quebec
Russia
Saudia Arabia
Singapore
South Africa
South Korea
Switzerland
Taiwan
Turkey
United Arab Emirates
When you pay a tax, your country is supposed to offer something in return. If not, think about protest or tax evasion. In France it’s quite okay. I wish you the same.
