How to Add a Location-Based Tax Rate

Location-based tax rates let you apply different tax percentages based on where a customer is located. These override the global tax rate for matching orders.

  1. In the left-hand navigation, go to Pricing & Payments > Tax Settings.
  2. Click the Location based Tax Rates tab.
  3. Click Add Tax Rate.
  4. Fill in the following fields:
    • Name - a label for this tax rate (e.g. "Australian GST").
    • Rate - the tax percentage to apply.
    • Location - select the country or region this rate applies to.
    • State Code - optionally narrow to a specific state or province (e.g. CA, VIC).
    • Postcodes - optionally narrow further to specific postcodes. Type a postcode and press Enter to add it.
    • Currency - auto-populated based on location.
    • Prices Include Tax - toggle on if prices already include this tax.
    • Priority - set a priority number if multiple rates could match the same location. Higher priority rates take precedence.
  5. Click Save to add the rate.
