Does AWS charge VAT when paying by card? – We explain how to reduce costs.

From the beginning of March, Ukrainian AWS users who pay by bank card are subject to VAT. This is the best time to switch to work through a partner, as it allows you to get additional benefits and at the same time reduce costs under the new tariff.

Advantages of paying for AWS services through an official partner:

  • Official confirmation of expenses: Signing a contract and receiving a service acceptance act provided every month gives customers the opportunity to have official confirmation of their expenses. This allows them to more easily reflect these costs in accounting and reduce their pre-tax profits.
  • VAT reduction: Services are provided with VAT, and upon payment of services on the basis of the contract, the partner registers a tax invoice for the client. This allows the customer to take the amount of VAT paid to themselves as a tax credit, reducing the total amount of VAT they have to pay.
  • An official AWS partner provides fast technical support, helps solve problems in a timely manner and informs the client about changes in the platform.
  • Consulting on scaling and choosing the right tools, as well as advice on optimizing workloads from certified experts, will help you efficiently grow your infrastructure and save on operational costs.

In summary, working with an AWS partner helps with the development and maintenance of your infrastructure, and also allows you to manage your finances more efficiently, reducing your tax burden and receiving official confirmation of your expenses.
