    So that I can include countries that aren’t in the EU, as this community isn’t restricted to EU (even though the others aren’t strict). As I am in the process of making the UK list (it is HUGE… 😩 ) - the idea being that in the end we all know which sites to purchase from to expect tax etc… Although many of the sites still have (for example) UK or Norway options that the VAT is calculated before shipping.
