Dear customer,

As announced by the Federal Tax Administration (FTA), the VAT rate for Switzerland will be increased from 7.7% to 8.1% with effect from 1 January 2024. Based on the guidelines and transitional rules for increasing the tax rate published by the FTA, Ireland Sparkoo have prepared the following proposed approaches:

From billing cycle January 1, 2024, cloud services remotely provided by Ireland Sparkoo for all Switzerland customers will be subject to a 8.1% VAT.

We will issue tax invoices that reflect these taxes to you, and relevant tax amount will also appear in your Billing Center. Ireland Sparkoo will pay all VAT collected from Switzerland Customer to the Switzerland Tax authorities. If you are a customer who has registered a Switzerland VAT number, please select VAT Register and update tax-related information and Tax Identification Number (a 12-digit number and character string e.g.CHE-xxx.xxx.xxx) in the HUAWEI CLOUD Official Website > Console > Account Center. This information is reflected in the invoice we issue to you.

Thank you for using Huawei Cloud.
