Taxes on adverstising
I would like to know if the advertising taxes that are charged to our Amazon Seller Central account are deducted from our invoices or if Amazon charges them to us in return?

Do you get invoices from Amazon?
This is VAT. You live in a country where the end consumer has to pay the local VAT. And you have no VAT number in your country (if you live in Europe it has to be a European VIES VAT number). So Amazon has the legal obligation to collet VAT from you on ALL your costs (ads, FBA fees, subscription fee etc.) and to remit it to your governement. if you decide to get a VAT number, put it in your account settings and Amazon will stop collecting them.
You see this taxes as deduction in "Payments" under "Transaction View". You don't get an invoice but your "Total Balance" will be reduced by this amount.
