# Taxation by Region
Your billing address determines your region.
If your billing address is in the United States (USA), we will assess and collect sales tax according to the rules and regulations in each state.
If your billing address is outside the United States (USA), VAT/GST will be applied to your purchases. If you enter a valid VAT/GST ID, we will not charge you VAT/GST (except for customers in Sweden). By entering a VAT/GST ID, you are confirming you are a VAT/GST registered business.
# Tax ID types
If you are in the listed countries, please enter the specific type of Tax ID. Providing your VAT/GST ID will ensure that you are not charged additional tax. If you can not provide/or we can not verify a VAT/GST ID, you will be charged taxes as required by your country's tax code. If you have a different type of Tax ID that doesn't match the default type, contact us and get help.
