Do you know if Braintree handles EU VAT in an automatic way? I've read the article below but I'm not totally sure what to make of it: https://www.taxamo.com/br

  I don't know about Braintree, but I can report that for my SaaS app (https://www.wisecashhq.com https://www.wisecashhq.com, currently priced in $ but France-based), I used Recurly (https://www.recurly.com https://www.recurly.com) which handles EU VAT very nicely (including VAT changes happening in 2015). I use them together with Stripe as my gateway, it generates proper invoices and applies the rate of the buyer's country unless a valid VAT number has been provided. They also provide a stripe-like js library so that the credit-card number doesn't go through my server. With regard to VAT MOSS report, they do most of the checks, I only wrote a little ETL script using http://www.kiba-etl.org/ http://www.kiba-etl.org/ to create a break-down of the related amounts for each quarter and each country, which I then submit manually to the VAT MOSS French website. So in my case, this is fully automated, and I'm pretty happy with this :-) Feel free to email me if you have questions.

    This is the setup (Recurly + Stripe) the article is complaining about though, it doesn't protect well against fraud.
