WOW the more I read, I am getting disheartened by Google's approach. Apparently developers have to handle ALL SALES tax on their own. Seriously can they make a life of a developer harder? Apple's AppStore handles all taxes for you and Google Android Market does not? Are you serious? A small developer like me can really figure out what to do with sales taxes for US and other countries in the world?
Sometimes Google's approaches make them seem so immature compared to other companies. Do they even know what they are doing? At this point, I am unsure what to do at all. I have tons of sales sold without any taxes imposed onto the buyer. How do I report this back to the tax agencies? I might have to go to the route of hiring a tax consultant just to deal with this and Google thinks developers will flock to Google to do this type of BS? What is Google thinking?! Please tell me I am totally wrong on this. On Nov 10, 5:19 pm, Arron <[email protected]> wrote: > I have been selling my application on the Android Market for over a > period of 6 months.

Any tax genius out there that has any ideas on what to do? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
