Pixinsight VAT

[jif001]

For info, just in case you are thinking of buying a Pixinsight licence in 2020:

My Pixinsight trial is about to end and I found it indispensable so I’m going to cough up the cash. The website states that VAT is not payable outside the EU and since the UK is now outside The EU I expected it not to be charged, but it is. I queried it with them, and they said that by law VAT will remain payable on EU purchases until 31st December 2020

That's a pain, my trial ran out the other day.

Looks like an extra €46 then.

it's worth noting that PI is great SW, very good value (compared with HW costs & other photo processing SW) and the tax helps governments pay for stuff like the health service...

That’s indisputable, but the point of this post was not about tax avoidance.  No-one wants to pay tax if it isn’t necessary, and the point was merely to clarify the issue for those who may be wondering 👍🏻
