I am a US resident contributor. Will I have to declare my royalty income on my US tax return?

91¶¶Òõ understands that you will need to report the royalty payments that you earn each year on your annual federal (and state, if applicable) income tax return. We suggest you consult a tax professional to consider what is required based on your circumstances.

Please note that 91¶¶Òõ will not issue you with Form 1099 ‘Miscellaneous Income’. This is because 91¶¶Òõ Education Limited is a UK resident company and royalty payments will be paid from the UK.

You will probably need to declare your royalty income in your country of tax residence and it is advisable to seek professional advice concerning this.

VAT

How does VAT affect the level of royalties sale to sale?

The price of each resource sold by 91¶¶Òõ Resources is VAT inclusive. Your royalties are calculated on the net price of your content – the price before VAT. The percentage of VAT/GST charged depends on the location of the individual customer purchasing the resource (their VAT jurisdiction).

For example, the sale of a £6 Resource to a UK customer is comprised of £5 net and £1 VAT. 91¶¶Òõ will pay the £1 VAT to the UK Tax Authorities. Your royalties are calculated on the £5 net. EU countries have different VAT rates and so the VAT amount contained within the £6 selling price will change. This will change the net amount and will therefore change the amount of your royalties.

The information contained in this section will help you think about the tax implications of selling your content on 91¶¶Òõ Resources. However, 91¶¶Òõ is not a tax adviser and recommends that you consult a tax professional for advice pertaining to your own specific circumstances.

What are my responsibilities with regards to VAT if I am based in the UK?

When a resource is sold from 91¶¶Òõ’ Resources website to a third party, 91¶¶Òõ is the seller in that sale and so charges VAT/GST (as appropriate) to the third-party customer and remits that VAT/GST to the appropriate Tax Authority.

It is your responsibility to decide whether you need to register for UK VAT in respect of your royalty income. It is also your responsibility to file your own VAT returns and pay the VAT due to HMRC.

If you are based in the UK and are VAT registered, it is your responsibility to issue a tax invoice to 91¶¶Òõ Education Resources limited for the royalty income paid into your bank account. You need to notify 91¶¶Òõ if you are already registered for VAT, become registered or deregister.

For up-to-date government information about registering for VAT, please see .  

The information contained in this section will help you think about the tax implications of selling your content on 91¶¶Òõ Resources. However, 91¶¶Òõ is not a tax adviser and recommends that you consult a tax professional for advice pertaining to your own specific circumstances.

Does VAT apply to all contributors’ royalty earnings?

If you are registered for VAT in the UK, UK VAT will be calculated on your gross earnings (eg if your royalty earnings are £120, we will calculate that £20 of these earnings is VAT). If you are not UK VAT registered, your royalty earnings will not include VAT.

I’ve bought content from 91¶¶Òõ Resources. Will I be charged VAT?

The price of each resource is VAT inclusive. However, if you are an individual who lives in the EU or Australia, the price will include VAT or GST respectively at the rates applicable in that country.
