    Hello,

    I observed this that after uploading a mere 50 $ for testing a new campaign:

    Current balance



    ($40.65)credit remaining
    Includes estimated tax of $9.35


    They took 9.35 $ for "taxes"? Will they do this every time I upload? This is crazy, they haven't done anything like this before, when I used my old AdWords account (that was several years ago...).

    So will they take part of my funds every time?

    This was like 20 %, so with that money it will be a miracle if I achieve ROI!

    What is this thing?

    They said it was the VAT charged.

    It happens, when you use AdWords as a person, not as a company/business.
    But if you fill in your company name and billing preferences properly with your EU VAT number for example, it could not happen I guess.

    Previously they never took anything and my other PPC accounts never took anything either. For regional and personal accounts they take VAT.
    Yes, Babaluga, you are right. For companies they don't take.
