This article outlines the tax policies for products sold in the United States, Canada, Chile, and Brazil. Please note that tax policies are subject to change.

Sales tax is charged when products are delivered to the following states, territories, and districts in the United States:

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Washington DC, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Sales tax will not be charged for printed materials exported outside the United States.

When selling products from Gelato in the USA, please consider obtaining a Resale Certificate.

GST/HST is charged for orders printed locally in Canada. Canadian Federal GST is charged at 5%. This is combined in most Provinces with the local PST, which is set between 0% and 10%, to create a Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) rate as in the chart below:

When a local Chilean customer places an order for products on the Gelato website, it enters into a service contract with Gelato Chile and will receive an invoice from Gelato Chile. For domestic sales from Gelato Chile to local customers, 19% VAT will be added.

If the customer billing entity is outside Chile and would like to pay for products delivered in Chile, Gelato ASA will bill the customer for the products. Because Gelato ASA is not registered in Chile for TAX purposes, no Chilean VAT will be included in the invoice from Gelato ASA to the non-Chilean customer.

When a local Brazilian customer places an order for print products on the Gelato website, it enters into a service contract with Gelato Brazil and will receive an invoice from Gelato Brazil.

Gelato Brazil will charge Brazilian customers: 1,65% PIS and 7,6% COFINS (i.e. 9,25% cumulative under APM), and 2% ISS (if Gelato Brazil is incorporated in São Paulo).

If the customer billing entity is outside Brazil and would like to pay for products delivered in Brazil, Gelato ASA will bill the customer for the products. Because Gelato does not have a PE (permanent establishment) in Brazil, no Brazilian VAT will be included on the invoice from Gelato ASA to the non-Brazilian customer.
