If you’re going to pay the tax, how would not passing it on to your customers make you “not having to worry about VAT anymore”?

You still would have to know how much to pay and have to be able to prove to the tax department how much you have to pay, which means tracking how much value your company added, which means tracking all your sales. Adding an amount you already have to compute and store to each bill wouldn’t be The problem.

(I’m not a lawyer, certainly not one who happens to know what VAT looks like everywhere in the world)
