To change the VAT ID for future invoices, please send an email in English to help@paddle.com and include both the subscription ID and the new VAT ID.

The invoice will be corrected and will no longer show any VAT.

Please note that refunds are only possible within 60 days and that Paddle does not issue separate documents for the credit note.
