Please join this discussion because the Microsoft agent shared the required certificate today with another user, but I confirm that this is a scandal!,

      Since not everyone understands this, could you explain why you should get this document free of charge from Microsoft?

      I think that this will mean that you will have to pay VAT in your country. for electronic services and Microsoft products - do I interpret your problem correctly?

      Please write an explanation 🙂

        Deleted no it's worse than that. If we don't have the document, we have to pay 25% of the whole amount billed by microsoft to our country tax Office. The Vat over the total amount was already paid. That document avoids double taxation. And it is mandatory (we get it easily from Google and other big companies). It's like we have to pay VAT and another 25%.
