    I have a website and I want to offer 2 standard products. Paypal seems to be the best option, because here it has the highest reach.

    Now I also have to add VAT to the products.

    Can paypal automaticly add the VAT? If not is there a simple script that can do it for a small nr of products (2 or 3) where people enter the amout they want and then get a total nr and are forwarderd to paypal to pay it?

    Thank you

    Johnburk,

    Just add the cost of the VAT to the price of your product? Then just deduct from that?

    So for example:

    If my product cost 100 ex. VAT and VAT is 16%.

    I just add the product in paypal as 116. Then it is no problem?

    And manually make a invoice and email it?

    Johnburk,
    Put the "sticker price" on the product then subtract the VAT from that.
    (I think we are on the same track right?)
