Hello, dear Upwork community.
My question is about the VAT ID and the VAT rate in Georgia. My business status is Micro Business. My Turnover is less than 30,000 Gel (approximately $11,000). According to Georgian tax legislation, I am not eligible to become a VAT taxpayer - as a Micro Business. Why am I being charged VAT if it is against the law?

Hi Evgeniia,
Thank you for reaching out to us here in the Community. Please know that Georgia requires Upwork to collect value-added tax, or VAT, and remit the tax to the government of Georgia if we do not have a valid VAT ID on file for you. VAT is a tax on goods or services, including our services to you, and remit means to send money for a payment.
In Georgia, the VAT rate is 18% of the cost of the service being taxed. For example, if you pay $100 USD in freelancer service fees, you will pay $18 in tax, for a total of $118. You’ll see the estimated amount of tax on your invoices and Transaction History.
If you provide a valid VAT ID to Upwork, we will not have to collect this tax from you. You can enter or edit your VAT ID in your account’s Settings > Tax Information.
