You do not have to do that. But you have to pay the VAT or similar tax for your country.

I wonder if VAT is the reason why the rules for were the transaction takes place is different for paper books compare to electronic books. For paper books ordered from abroad the package have to pass the custom were VAT can be added. For electronic books there are not such mechanism. So selling ebooks on an SD card might be the same as selling a paper book since the package will pass custom.
