In order to be compliant with these legal requirements, Wondershare will start to collect a Value Added Tax (VAT) for all sales to shoppers in these areas. We collect the VAT rate of each individual country then remit the collected tax to the proper tax authority.

And please note that Wondershare now has legal VAT IDs registered in these countries and regions. Going forward, any transaction in EU/ United Kingdom/ Japan/ Australia and other countries will be charged VAT regardless of exemption status.
