EVEN handles sales tax and VAT globally, as merchant of record. Your team files nothing on fan transactions.
Why it works that way
The tax obligation follows whoever sells to the fan. EVEN is the seller of record, so the tax on each fan transaction sits with EVEN and not with the artist or the label. Your campaign can sell into 195 countries in a release week without your team registering for tax in any of those territories.
What is included in the percentage
EVEN's percentage covers global sales tax, along with payment processing, currency conversion, publishing and fan support. Nothing is deducted a second time, and no tax bill arrives at the end of the campaign.
Customs duties are different
Customs duties and import fees work differently from sales tax. The destination country sets them on international physical orders, and the fan pays them, unless your campaign chooses to price them in. Duties are the one tax-adjacent cost EVEN's percentage does not cover, so say plainly in your fan-facing copy how your campaign handles them.
Your own accounting
Your finance team still books the revenue that reaches you. They will need the audit-firm accounting memo covering the merchant-of-record structure, and your EVEN team can hand it over during setup. Reporting shows gross and net with daily payout records to go alongside it.
