@ruby vine yes the tax rate will apply to each invoice in the future

#

thanks koopajah. so that means if the user changes their address, we will have to update the tax rates manually right?

#

correct if you set the tax yourself you have to. You could use our Tax product though: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/taxes/collect-taxes

#

yeah my initial solution used the stripe tax product, but our business logic requires calculating sales tax based on billing address in some cases and mailing address in others, and as i understand, the stripe tax (not tax rates) logic will automatically try to use the mailing address first

#

so if a user has both billing and mailing and we are meant to charge by billing address, the mailing address will be used instead

#

do you know if i am correct in this understanding^?

sorry totally missed your follow ups

#

yeah https://stripe.com/docs/tax/customer-locations#address-hierarchy says the same thing
