👋 happy to help

#

if you know what tax rates to use you can simply use https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/taxes/tax-rates

Tax rates and IDs

Assign tax rates to draft invoices for automatic tax calculation.

Also when I create tax transaction in test mode, I couldn't see it anywhere.

#

do you mean on the dashboard?

cunning sentinel Feb 21, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

Yes @fathom flax

#

I'm not sure tax calculation objects are shown in the dashboard

#

they are accessible through the API though

cunning sentinel Feb 21, 2024, 10:31 AM

#

noted, so can you please explain me the difference between tax rate and tax a bit ?

#

I need to add GST on every paymentIntent

#

tax rate are known prefixed tax-rates

#

whereas custom tax calculates the tax for each customer, for each price during the payment

cunning sentinel Feb 21, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

So there should be at least one customer created or billing information must be collected first BEFORE tax?

fathom flax Feb 21, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

if you're using custom tax yes

cunning sentinel Feb 21, 2024, 10:36 AM

#

so is GST a custom tax?

fathom flax Feb 21, 2024, 10:38 AM

#

I'm really not a tax expert, sorry
