ACM UMAP 2026 Registration Opens
ACM UMAP 2026 opens registration. 11 days left to benefit from early-bird pricing. Unfortunately, 25% VAT is added to all prices. The payment company, gave me this additional information:
According to Skatteverket (the Swedish Tax Agency) output VAT at a rate of 25% must be charged on the participation fee for a conference. As of the 19th of June 2019, the service of admission to an event that is cultural, artistic, scientific or educational in nature, or similar, such as trade fairs and exhibitions, is considered supplied within Sweden if the event takes place there. This means that Swedish VAT must be charged regardless of who the purchaser is and where they are established, provided that the conference takes place in Sweden.
