As of January 2015, all companies selling products into the EU are required to charge VAT for online sales. To comply with this requirement, prices may include an additional charge reflected on your invoice and differing depending on your country of residence – pricing also includes the required VAT based on a standardized rate for each country.
We understand that conversion and VAT results in a higher end price for EU customers, however please note that our base prices have not increased. UA is simply meeting the EU requirement to charge VAT tax on products sold into the EU. When VAT and currency conversion costs are removed, the base price is the same as US dollars and in some cases, lower.
