What if the rounding of fees and invoice amounts do not match?
In order to calculate fees as accurately as possible, this web site uses fixed net amounts. However, due to different VAT(Value Added Tax) rates within the European Union this may result in rounded amounts.
This may result in rounding differences, as the 6 digit net amounts are used to calculate 2 digit invoice amounts. This web site rounds the gross amounts to 2 digit amounts, i.e. 0.412414 is rounded off to 0.41 and 0.4167 is rounded up to 0.42.
The invoice amount is calculated by adding up all the net amounts. VAT is then calculated based on the total of the net amount. In some instances this may create slight differences between gross and net amounts.
