AI Summary

Service tax liability on foreign exchange payments for marketing and trade fair services hinges on service classification. A user inquired about the service tax liability for payments made in foreign exchange for marketing services received from Germany, trade fair expenses in London, and certification of trade fair services. The response advised checking the place of provision of service to determine if the services fall under import or export categories. If classified under event management services, it would be considered an export of service and thus not taxable.
