licensing

I want to buy Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Web Edition in order to remotely install it on the server.

The question is: Can I buy a licence in USA and pay in US dollars? OR do I have to buy it in my country (Portugal)? Since the servers are in Germany, should I buy the licence in Germany?

(And if anyone know a good reseller I would apreciate)
