Thanks looking

#

Okay so doesn't look like that Customer has a set tax ID which is required here (see: https://docs.stripe.com/tax/zero-tax#reverse-charges) or the Customer needs to be set to tax_exempt: "reverse" if you don't collect Tax ID.

Zero tax amounts and reverse charges

Stripe Tax calculates a zero tax amount some scenarios, like non-registration, exempt products, reverse charges, exempt customers, and transactions in excluded territories. In these cases, to tax may not be applied to specific transactions

So stripe does not factor in the address of the customer to determine the tax?

tough vine
#

Yes it does, but reverse charges are only for B2B which is indicated via the presence of a Tax ID, otherwise you have to specify that the Customer should be reverse charged if it applies.

I understand. All of our checkouts are B2B but we dont ask for Tax id because we have that at a different point in our product.

If 100% is B2B is there an easy way to let stripe determine the tax in the checkout session?

But that is not dynamic then going forward, is it? Not all customers are tax exempt

tough vine
#

You just said all your customers are B2B?

#

So you would set that for all EU Customers that are not in your country, right?

#

That is how reverse VAT works I believe (I'm not a tax expert)

Yes thats correct, but if i tax exempt every customers this would apply to customers in my country to, wouldnt it?

Hi 👋

I'm stepping in as my colleague needs to go soon

slow whale
#

Hi Snufkin, thanks! lmk if u need further info

bronze grotto
#

Well based on what you said above, it's not clear to me which of your customers are or are not tax exempt. I thought you said all your customers are B2B so wouldn't the same rules apply to all of them?

slow whale
#

100% is B2B but tax exempt are only those who are within the EU and not from germany. For these, reverse charge applies and thus there should be no tax

#

ideally the checkout sesion would recognize that based on the customers address

But my colleague already told you that, for reverse tax, we need either a Tax ID from the customer or you to have specified if they should be exempt.
