Best practice for communicating Value Added Tax on listings
United Baristas has both trade and retail businesses as well as individuals as users. This article communicates best practice when communicating the listing price to avoid potential confusion.
Entering the selling price

United Baristas does not offer an option to list items excluding VAT.
The listed price is the advertised price, inclusive of VAT, if any.

When selling
If you are VAT registered, we recommend that you communicate this in the listing’s description as it is relevant for prospective VAT registered buyers.
When buying
If you are purchasing an item and are VAT registered do not assume that the seller is also VAT registered. If you are uncertain, contact the seller for clarification.
