When using Evernote's services, it's important to understand how taxes are applied to your account. Below is an overview of how tax charges are determined, what affects the rate, and how they are handled by Evernote.
Tax Assessment based on billing address
Evernote collects taxes based on the billing address you have registered when making a payment in your Evernote account. The location of your billing address plays a crucial role in determining the applicable tax rate, as taxes are often region-specific.
Your billing address determines the tax jurisdiction under which your account is assessed. Different countries, states, and regions may have varying tax rates and regulations, which can affect the amount of tax applied to your subscription.
How Evernote handles taxes
Once your billing address is provided, our system calculates the appropriate taxes that apply to your purchase. These taxes are then collected directly from users.
Collection of Taxes: Evernote ensures that taxes are applied correctly to your purchase. You can find detailed information about tax charges in your invoice.
Remittance to Tax Authorities: After collecting the applicable taxes, Evernote remits the payments to the appropriate tax authorities, following the laws and regulations in the relevant jurisdiction. This process ensures compliance with local and international tax laws.
Changes to invoice details for individual users
Please note that, as part of recent updates, individual users with Free, Personal, or Professional plans are no longer able to add or modify their billing address, Tax ID and company name in their invoices. If you intend to use Evernote for business purposes, we recommend exploring Evernote Teams, which offers these capabilities and tax exemptions.
Tax exemption for Teams users
Tax exemption is only available for Teams users (business accounts). If you are an individual user on the Free, Personal, or Professional plans, tax exemption options are not available. However, Teams accounts are eligible for certain tax exemptions or reverse charge mechanisms, especially for businesses and organizations that qualify under their local tax laws.
If you believe you qualify for tax exemption, upgrading to a Teams account will provide the necessary capabilities to apply these exemptions.
