Unless I'm reading their info incorrectly, I don't think that this new change (https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/ support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2611840) means that Google is going to take care of and submit sales tax/VAT to the proper authorities for you. It seems that they're just changing Google Play to display tax- inclusive pricing so that customers will know the exact cost right away instead of having tax added on later in the purchase process. But the sales tax/VAT will still be paid to the dev, and the dev will still need to submit the tax to the proper authorities on their own. Of course my knowledge of sales tax issues is limited, so I could be misinterpreting.
