I believe the highest is somewhere about 25%. My business, Meshbox Design (http://www.meshbox.com) is located in Oregon, one of few states not to have a sales tax (of course, we have state income tax), which is nice. My understanding of VAT is that individuals pay, but somehow companies are exempt. It seems to me if that is the case, then it pays to have an employer buy stuff, when possible. best, chikako

Best regards,
