You're saying that you want to calculate based on shipping address instead of billing address?
eager shoal
yes, right now it is doing that but when i redirect to the stripe checkout screen there is this tooltip that is still being shown that says 'sales tax calculated based on billing address'
toxic herald
What method are you using to declare that tax should be calculated based on shipping address?
toxic herald
I see that you're charging tax on the shipping costs themselves, which is different from charging tax on the whole sale based on the shipping address. Am I missing something?
eager shoal
I am charging on the total amount, not just the shipping
I enabled automatic tax, so....

👋 stepping in here
Doesn't look like you are collecting shipping address here in the Checkout Session. You'd set shipping_address_collection (https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-shipping_address_collection) if you were to do that and then Auto Tax would use that address for calculation.

I am creating a customer record and passing the id of the customer
and the customer record contains the shipping address
the sales tax is being calculated based on the shipping address and that is all resolved. but the checkout interface displays the right sales tax amount but its the tool tip i dont understand
it is saying 'calculated based on the billing address'
