Paid services outside of the country

I was browsing the Paid Services section of the drupal forums and I was curious whether there were any cross border issues that need to be taken in Paid Drupal Services?

Export, taxes, etc?

It's a strange thing about determined seekers-after-wisdom that, no matter where they happen to be, they'll always seek that wisdom which is a long way off. Wisdom is one of the few things that looks bigger the further away it is.

This is an old thread but...

I'm not sure what kind of services you're talking about. But in any case you would have taxes to file. With an internet business you gotta report all income to uncle sam, or else... If you're shipping something out of country, you don't have to pay any extra shipping charges, but the recipients in a foreign country would need to pay customs charges, which could get quite high, Prices on electronics and cars in foreign countries are three times higher than in US, for that reason. If you actually have a division of your country operating in a foreign country like Google Russia for example, you would need to abide by all the laws and taxes of that country.
