VAT in Europe

VAT in Europe

How does VAT work in Europe? Does the guest pay? How do I know if I have been charged VAT? I checked under "Listings/Reservations" as the Help page says but I don't see any VAT deducted or charged?

For individuals VAT is applied to Airbnb Service fees (for Guest and for Host).

it is explained here:

https://www.airbnb.com/help/article/436/what-is-vat-and-how-does-it-apply-to-me

The VAT invoice can be seen in the list of reservations (via pulldown menu in most right colomn: "three dots")

For commercial renting additional  EU rules apply:

Hope this helps,
