    If you're too lazy to read that and look it up yourself you're proud of you too lazy to write your own Kindle books

      So it`s 0.70 for some countries and 0.35 for others. But do i have for 0.70 price it at 1.99? I don`t want to i only want to sell it at 0.99. I`m not lazy it``s just there isn`t a striaght answer of how much you get if you price it at 0.99$. is it 0.29$ for 0.35 and 0.51$ for 0.70 with a 0.33$ VAT?

    I'm not sure why you had so much trouble finding your answers...

    Here is a link for pricing tiers:
    https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/A301WJ6XCJ8KW0

    Obviously, you are not entitled for the 70% royalty program with $0.99 books.

    So, using this link: https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/A29FL26OKE7R7B and the examples they have on the site:

    Here is your Royalty Amount:
    Royalty Rate x (List Price - applicable VAT) = Royalty

    No VAT Scenario:
    0.35 x ($0.99 - $0.00) = $0.35

    VAT Scenario (Where VAT is 20%)
    0.35 x ($0.99 - $0.165) = $0.29

    If you sold 10,000 Books you'd get somewhere in between $2,900 - 3,500.

    Also, you have to have books under 3MBs to qualify for the $0.99 pricing. 3-10MB are minimum $1.99 pricing.
