Hi 👋 how VAT is calculated is a bit outside of our area of expertise, but I'm looking to see if we have a document addressing this.

To clarify, are you asking how Stripe Tax handles VAT calculation, or are you building your own VAT calculation and are looking for guidance on the appropriate approach on calculating those amounts?

Hi, if that's a problem I can ask the sales dep.
I'm asking how Stripe calculates the VAT that gets applied to the checkout amount, is the VAT of the country the payment is coming from (example card from US -> US VAT gets applied) or it's the VAT of my account country (example IT account -> italian VAT)

#

Thanks for the help, appreciated

It looks like that can vary based on what is being sold and where, I believe the sections here and their tables may help shed some light on that:
