Hi, we do support automatic tax collection with PaymentLinks: https://docs.stripe.com/tax/payment-links . Can you add more details to what you've tried and what is now working exactly?

Hi, so right now the process I have going for me is that I check if the customer is stored on stripe, if not then I create them, make a stripe invoice with metadata like my plan, the credits to be granted, the accountId of the user etc and then create an invoice item for that amount. then finalize it and return the hosted invoice url
from there the user completes the payment and I get the webhook confirmation on my backend.
now 2 things to keep in mind is that I am testing the app in a sandbox, and I am also testing from India, and apparently the german 19% VAT won't apply to me?
but the invoice being created doesn't mention any sort of tax anyway
if I were to use payment links, would it lead to invoice creatino?

Yes, you can enable them, https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment-link/create#create_payment_link-invoice_creation-enabled for one time invoices.
We do not have expertise on tax requlations so we can't speak to how taxes would apply. You can look at how testing Tax works here: https://docs.stripe.com/tax/testing
