Sales Tax coming for Some, Not All, Users (part 2) - July 15/ Aug 1
🕑 Added 2021-07-10 21:58:39 +0000 UTCHey there, sinners!
I've received an e-mail from Patreon, that will also be sent to patrons who are affected by it ( on July 12).
So like last time, Patreon is required by law to add sales tax/VAT/GST to some pledges from patrons in most US states and several other countries, so the list just got bigger with a few more places.
"Canada (other than Quebec where Patreon already charges QST), Thailand, Florida, and Kansas. If you live in one of those places, you should see a small amount of tax added to your pledge starting July 15th for per post, and August 1st for monthly.
EDIT (2021.07.23.): "We wanted to clarify that the 5% federal GST rate applies in addition to any local/provincial taxes. So for example, patrons in Quebec may be charged up to 14.975% tax (federal GST of 5% plus Quebec QST of 9.975%). In some provinces, the combined federal and local tax is called HST, or Harmonized Sales Tax."
If you have questions, you should be able to find answers here. If you still have questions, the best place to get an answer is from Patreon’s customer support team, here."
Since my patreon page works as "pledge per month" instead of "per post", this's going to take affect from Aug 1rst (altho, I assume new patrons from that region after July 15 will be also charged accordingly(?).
Thank you for reading this and
Thank you for your generous past-, present- and future support whether it is outside or here at Patreon!
