If you are consumer facing then charge everyone VAT and then take the profit for those territories where it isn't applied. It would at least be consistent. If you don't increase your prices you are effectively increasing your costs as you try to absorb the VAT that you will have to pay.

For Europe it depends - it can be done on a marginal scheme or not charged at all - it's always a bit trickier and not so cut and dried.

From 1 January 2015 these services will be taxed in the member state in which the consumer is located, ensuring these are taxed fairly and helping to protect revenue."
