Tax changes situation! (Patreon)
Content
Well, guys, I think you might have gotten the message from patreon already regarding new Tax adding to the pledges. It is VAT, GST, JCT, QST or Sales Tax, its name depends on country.
Patreon says that this is cause of world laws changes and because 'digital goods' become 'real goods'. Different streaming platforms who provide digital services, like, for example, Netflix, have been paying for it for some time. Thats why Patreon adds this taxes aswell.
Sadly, for now creators can not take those taxes on their side. Only the one who "recieves goods" coud pay sales tax :c It is illegal for them to give me the ability to take this tax on my side. Patreon said that they maaaay be will think up something regarding this in the future, but not for now.
Now to the better news! Changes in pledges might notice less than a half of you ^^ Sorry, that might sound strange, I know, but I have no idea how to rephrase it xDD I mean that my content, the one I provide to you, wont be taxable in most places. I have settled my pledges as it was advices in official Patreon FAQ sooooo as I understand tax will not be applied to the whole summ of pledge, but to the % of content that is taxable. OOOF! This is so hard to understand and even more hard to describe xDDD
I really hope it will not affect you too much so you can just chill here and enjoy the stuff ><
If you have any questions or anything please ask here in comments or via private messages! I'd glagly try to answer you ^^ (try not cause im lazy or smth but cause it is so damn harddddd)
