You are not allowed to advertise consumer goods for sale to buyers in the UK or the EU without VAT included at the correct rate. The correct rate of VAT for books in the UK is zero.

BTW it doesn't matter where the site is, if you ship to the UK or EU you must display your prices inclusive of VAT at the correct rate at the point where the goods are displayed.

What you say is technically correct, but not applicable. Applicable law, including consumer protection laws, for this site is Californian law.

And those end user price tags that must include taxes are of the consumer protecion variety. This is of course my opinion and I am not a lawyer, but I would be very surprised, if I were wrong here.

Yep, not a lawyer either so I've no idea how you square that circle. If it was physical goods it would "simply" be a case of not shipping to those territories.

In any case it's a secondary issue compared to actually charging and collecting the correct tax.
