Which tax ID type should I choose in Claude billing?
Anthropic says an optional tax ID field can appear after you enter an eligible billing address. Match the type offered in your actual checkout to your own registration. Stripe documents eu_vat for EU VAT numbers and br_cpf / br_cnpj for Brazilian CPF / CNPJ. These are examples of Stripe-supported types, not a verified list of every Claude checkout option.
If the field is optional and you have no applicable tax registration, leave it blank. A business should use its own tax number and company details, not another company’s ID.

Does Claude Pro include VAT?
The App Store and Google Play prices displayed on this site include tax. App Store Pro and Max figures are monthly subscription prices; a Google Play in-app purchase range is not a plan-specific monthly quote. Anthropic’s web pricing excludes applicable tax, so the listed $20 Pro monthly price is not necessarily the final web charge. Your billing address affects web tax calculation.

EU VAT ID and VIES validation
An EU VAT number includes a country prefix; DE123456789 is a format example, not an ID to use. Stripe validates EU VAT IDs through VIES. The European Commission’s VIES service can help you check a number; an invalid result can also reflect a registration or availability issue.
Validation alone does not establish reverse-charge treatment or guarantee a VAT-free Claude subscription. Use your real billing details and review the tax line at checkout; ask support about account-specific treatment.

How to change your billing or invoice address
For self-serve Pro and Max, the billing address follows your payment method. Go to Settings → Billing → Update beside the payment method, edit the real address and save. For a company invoice name, select “Use a different name on invoices” and complete Bill to.
If a business needs a fixed address independent of its card, contact support with proof of its primary business location. Changes affect future invoices; finalized paid invoices cannot be edited or reissued. Store subscriptions use Apple or Google receipts.

Japan consumption tax and Anthropic’s invoice registration
The Japan monthly App Store prices displayed on this site include consumption tax. Separately, Anthropic’s direct-billing notice says 10% JCT is added from April 1, 2026. Its qualified-invoice registration number is T7700150134388. The billing currency stays the same; qualified invoices show JCT in yen. Contact Anthropic support for invoice questions.

What about annual billing?
Annual billing is as displayed in the App Store or Google Play; this site has not collected annual prices yet. Do not multiply a monthly price to invent an annual quote. Review the billing period and renewal terms in your store before purchasing.

Tax-inclusive store prices and currency estimates
Country pages show tax-inclusive monthly prices in the store currency, a verification date and a reference FX date. USD conversions are estimates for comparison; your card exchange rate, store updates and final charge may differ. Confirm the billing period and currency at checkout.
