Hi! Can you also provide me with the link to the docs you are referencing?

https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/taxes#:~:text=If you wish to ensure that Google Pay is offered as a payment method while using Stripe Tax in Checkout%2C you must require collecting a shipping address

To confirm, are you creating ExpressCheckoutElement or using embedded Checkout Session?

#

I am creating ExpressCheckoutElement.

lament cypress May 20, 2025, 7:20 AM

#

The request you provided is for Checkout Sessions. The link is for ui_mode: embedded while your checkout session is being created with ui_mode: custom. I would suggest checking on which integration you are attempting.

#

Regarding shipping address, there is a shipping_address_collection parameter which you can use to collect the relevant details: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-shipping_address_collection

#

I am attempting custom

#

That particular line of doc is applicable to custom as well.
I do not think so you have understood problem. I am asking for how to avoid shipping_address_collection while enabling tax for google pay and you are attaching doc for how to use it😅

#

Apologies!

#

I tested this on my end.

#

I am able to create a checkout session with ui_mode: custom , mode: subscription and shipping_address_collection.

#

The issue with the request you provided was that shipping_options was included in the request.

#

The shipping address is likely required to calculate the tax amount.
