The VAT is added as a tax_rate to the chosen subscription. Currently we only update this if the subscription is changed I believe, in this case its just a card change. To fix this, we’d need to update our payment method / card webhook responder to determine if the current country matches the proper tax rate on the users subscriptions, then update the subscriptions to use the correct tax rate object.
