That is a shock. I would contact them. Perhaps it's taxable where you are. I have no idea.

maybe you should check the plan description? maybe it's only tax free for 3 months? or send an email to zoom's customer support so you'll know if it's an error or not.

There are several Zoom plans, the "Bassic" is free forever, but with limitations. Host up to 100 participants 40-minute maximum group meetings, unlimited 1:1 meetings. The Pro version for online schooling costs 14.99 per month.

Maybe they increased their service charges to cater for the taxes.

Hope you get this sorted out. I detest paying taxes as I know, it is pocketed by the corrupt officials in the government.

Blame it on coronavirus. It is making life difficult for everybody and some businesses take advantage of it.
