Why does a subscription cost less in another country?

An online service has no additional production cost based on the buyer's country. Publishers set a price per region, based on local purchasing power, VAT, and market competition.

Are the displayed prices tax-inclusive?

Yes. Each amount corresponds to the consumer-facing price in the relevant country, including local taxes, then converted to euros at the reference exchange rate.

Is it legal to subscribe from another country?

Using a VPN is legal in France, but declaring a billing address in a country where you do not reside violates the terms of service of most providers. The typical penalty is account suspension without a refund.
