hello
was asking is possible for the (the platform) to turn on the stripe tax 'on' for Connected accounts via api
hello
Tax gets a bit complicated with Connect as the entity that's liable for tax is usually the one that's the merchant of record
What kind of Connected Accounts are you using and which charge flow?
I am using stripe standard and while charging i'm using invoicing
๐ Taking over this thread, catching up now
okay i had some questions above could you help on that
For Standard connected account with Direct Charges (a.k.a using Stripe-Account header) on Invoicing, Stripe Tax is supported: https://stripe.com/docs/tax/faq#what-account-types-and-charge-flows-for-connect-do-you-support
Standard connected account needs to activate and set up Stripe Tax themselves, receive tax reporting through their Dashboard, and be billed for any usage of Stripe Tax.
With that, you can then follow these guides to use Stripe Tax on the Invoicing in connected account with Stripe-Account header:
- Invoicing with Stripe Tax: https://stripe.com/docs/tax/invoicing
Stripe-Accountheader: https://stripe.com/docs/api/connected_accounts
what do they mean by this "Standard connected account needs to activate and set up Stripe Tax themselves, receive tax reporting through their Dashboard, and be billed for any usage of Stripe Tax."
Standard connected account users have to log in their Dashboard to activate and set up Stripe Tax themselves with the steps here: https://stripe.com/docs/tax/set-up
Any related Stripe Tax such as tax reporting and billing should be obtained from Standard connected account's Dashboard (not platform Dashboard).
Platform can't activate and set up Stripe Tax for Standard connected accounts
can't we do it for them maybe using api call is that possible
Unfortunately, that's not possible for platform to complete the tax registration for connected accounts as tax registration is Dashboard only function and can't be done via API
okay thanks on that
