Hi! I guess this depends in your integration. But on the payment method object you can check the billing_details.address.country property https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/object#payment_method_object-billing_details-address-country

It's null in both the transactions I have

I can't see anything else on the charge object I can use to determine origin

And how are you integrating Stripe? With Checkout, PaymentIntent, something else?

[simple orbit]

Just recently switched to Payment Element

Also have a separate checkout flow

but this particular example is from Payment Element

Can you share the payment method object (pm_xxx) where the country is missing, just so I can check something?

Thanks! I confirm there's no country here. However note that iDEAL seems to only work for customers in the Netherlands, as mentioned here https://stripe.com/docs/payments/ideal

But if you need the country for all payment method, then that's something that you'll have to collect on your own.

Right, thanks for that

So how would this work with Stripe tax then? Surely Stripe has a way of collecting the user location for that purpose?

(I don't use Stripe tax but I am just asking)

To use Stripe automatic Tax, some customer location is required as mentioned here: https://stripe.com/docs/tax/customer-locations

I see, thanks for that
