Countries/Tax
The "Countries/Tax" area allows you to define sales tax for different countries. Country specific sales tax is only applied to orders shipped to the countries within the "Countries/Tax" area that have a sales tax amount or percentage defined for them.
 
Please note that this area is optional and is most often unnecessary for most crafters.

To access the "Countries/Tax" area, click on the left side "Countries/Tax" link under "Inventory".

Or you can click the "Countries/Tax" icon on the main page of your personal administration area.

Defining sales tax amounts for different countries:

Enter the sales tax amount and/or percentage for the country where you need to add the additional charge.

The "Tax(flat)" field is for a flat dollar amount whereas the "Tax(%)" field is for a percentage value. Once a value has been entered into either field for any of the countries, press the "Update" button at the bottom of the page to complete the update.

If both the sales tax amount and the percentage value are zero then there will be no country specific sales tax charges added to the customer's total during checkout.
