You can't claim back the VAT for Spotify as far as I am aware since it is only licensed for personal usage. Any public playback like in a shop or workplace is actually against the terms of service as far as I am aware.

Although only available in Sweden currently, Soundtrack for your Brand is really what you need if you are using Spotify in a commercial environment:

Yes, VAT is part of the subscription fee if you live in an EU country. If you pay by credit card, you get a receipt on your email that says how much VAT you have paid.

 

For the second question, someone from Spotify needs to answer. Why do you not have to pay VAT?

Can we get an offcial response here? I too need invoices to get my VAT back.

Good afternoon,

       how can we have the invoice and not the receipt. In the receipt there is no indicated our VAT NUMBER. We got 3 Shops and We need invoice to take the cost and VAT back. Why spotifuggle do not give the possibility to have invoice instead of the receipt??

 

Thanks.

Hello,

the VAT amount used to show on my Spotify Premium receipts up until september 2014 and is now gone.

It just mentions "including taxes". Why would you change that ? Please allow me to get the full detail concerning VAT on my receipts or invoices. This should not be happenning.

Thank you.

I have the same problem with VAT and also where can I add my invoicing details?? I cannot use these receipts in accounting. 

Hello, did anyone get VAT number? Thanks!

Hello Sam, 

I don´t want to see my reciepts, I want to put my VAT at the receipt. 

How can we change the VAT number? 

Es sabido que Spotify (aunque cobran IVA) no emite facturas fiscales para México, sin embargo, requiero que el recibo de pago contenga mis datos fiscales, ¿cómo puedo realizar esta acción?
