Explanation of page rates
Invoice Calculation:
The total invoice amount depends on the number of pages, the page rate, and the print run. The print run is determined by the number of copies printed (reader/syllabus) or the number of students who have access to the transfer(s) via a digital learning environment.
VAT:
A VAT rate of 21% is applied to non-short transfers. No VAT is applicable to the other categories.
Educational institutions without a buyout scheme:
Almost all educational institutions in the Netherlands make use of a buyout fee for the use of short excerpts from copyrighted works. For educational institutions that do not use a UvO buyout scheme, the page rates for "short excerpts" apply.
Out-of-Print Rate:
For works no longer available for sale, a fixed rate of 4.5 eurocents applies. However, if prior permission is not obtained, the higher infringement rate will be applied.
