Effective Date: May 6, 2025

At Vccpanda, we are committed to maintaining full transparency regarding any tax-related charges that may apply to transactions made on our platform. This Tax Policy outlines how taxes are handled during payments for both buyers and freelancers.

1. Tax Collection

Currently, Vccpanda charges applicable taxes on transactions where required by law. Taxes will be added to the total transaction amount at the time of payment, depending on your location and the tax regulations that apply to your purchase.

• For Buyers: If tax is applicable, it will be displayed during the checkout process before payment is made. The amount of tax charged will depend on the buyer’s location and the jurisdiction that governs the transaction.
• For Freelancers: Freelancers may also be subject to tax charges depending on their location and local tax laws. Taxes applicable to your earnings will be automatically deducted from payments as required by law.

2. How Taxes Are Calculated

The tax charged will vary based on multiple factors such as:

• User’s location: Different regions or countries may impose different tax rates.
• Type of Service: Certain services may have different tax rates based on the service category.

At the time of checkout or payment processing, the exact amount of tax will be calculated and displayed for the user to review before confirming the transaction.

3. Tax Display

When tax applies to a transaction, the tax will be clearly shown on the payment page during checkout. Users will be able to see:

• The subtotal of the services or projects being purchased.
• Any applicable taxes added to the total.
• The final total that needs to be paid.

This ensures transparency, and buyers or freelancers can review the full amount they are being charged before confirming the payment.

4. Responsibility for Tax

Buyers and freelancers are responsible for complying with local tax regulations. It is important that both parties are aware of their obligations under local law:

• Buyers: Are responsible for paying any taxes associated with the purchase of services.
• Freelancers: Are responsible for declaring and paying taxes on their earnings in accordance with their local tax laws.

Vccpanda does not take responsibility for users’ tax filings or payments to their local tax authorities. The platform only collects and displays applicable taxes during transactions.

5. Changes to Tax Policy

Tax laws and regulations may change over time. Vccpanda reserves the right to modify this Tax Policy at any time, to reflect changes in tax law or business practices. Users will be notified of significant changes, which will apply to future transactions.
