Sure. in_1LQgeYGQRO2tyviE2IWEJ1hP

#

This is in test environment.

#

Thanks. Let me take a look

#

You are using automatic tax calculation and the outcome of Taxability is non-taxable, that's why the tax amount is 0

#

Ok. So if the item is taxable, then automatic tax will use the returned tax rate, right?

#

Automatic tax (aka Stripe tax) and tax rate are two different products

Stripe tax will automatically calculate the tax for your customer based on the product and customer location. Whereas if you are using tax rate, Stripe will use the tax rate that you specify to calculate the tax.

I am using the Stripe tax. But it still returns the "tax rate" object (in above response)

plucky mist Jul 29, 2022, 4:12 AM

#

This tax_rate object is implicitly created by Stripe Tax.

marble citrus Jul 29, 2022, 4:31 AM

#

So I assume Stripe internally uses this tax_rate object to calculate the tax?

#

Yes. In another word, Stripe Tax will help you to create the appropriate tax_rate so that you don't need to do it yourself.
