I'm presuming you already have plans in place to pay the VAT on any charges you accrue though, it doesn't look like Google do this. This is what worries me the most, plus Google stipulate that your usage of the cloud platform must be for economic benefit, not for personal use. AWS don't seem to have this restriction and they will collect and pay VAT on your behalf. Why doesn't Google? Is it some sort of tax dodge?

Usually a seller doesn't add VAT to B2B invoices into the EU, VAT is accounted for by the purchaser under the 'reverse charge' system. B2C is different, they would need to charge the local VAT rate in each member state. I suspect they simply haven't gotten around to supporting it yet.
