Oh, the EU will say that you're supposed to charge people VAT if you sell to them directly from your website, but there's absolutely nothing they can do to make you do so.
I kind of assumed they couldn't do much and I don't sell enough for them to even NOTICE me. But it's still a pain in the neck. Well, for now it's taken care of. I think I've done all the various retailers that I know about. Google play hasn't said how they are doing things, but I think they slap VAT on after list so that shouldn't be an issues. Well, matching prices could still be an issue, but we'll see. Most overseas sales come from Kobo for me.
