i am trying to figure out how to implement it for my workplace, my boss asked me help me add vat/tax to her website checkout

sturdy shell
#

but let me know if you need any more help

round holly
#

Ok, thank you!

#

is it possible to add a billing address in the checkout process for taxes to get based off of that? there is stripe tax enabled, but it doesn't calculate the tax off of just region

Hey, taking over here! I'm not sure I understand the Q. Is the tax calculation not what you expect? Are you using Stripe Tax (via automatic_tax param)?

round holly
#

sorry, stripe is new to me so I am a little lost.
I have stripe tax, but at the checkout it doesn't update when I show the region. is it a setting in the api?

haughty isle
#

Stripe Tax will only calculate tax due in locales where there's a valid registration

#

i.e. you need to tell us that you need to pay tax in a certain region

round holly
#

ahh ok, it is just set up locally within finland and the eu

haughty isle
#

Then there'd only be a calculation in sessions where the customer was present in those regions

#

Do you have an example Checkout Session I can look at?

round holly
#

like this?

haughty isle
#

I'd need the ID of that Checkout Session (cs_test_xxx)

#

Or your Stripe account ID acct_xxx

round holly
#

sorry, but where do I find that?

Taking a look!

#

Hmm, don't think Stripe Tax is enabled on the Checkout Sessions you're using

#

Looks like you're using a third-party integration (MailerLite)?

round holly
#

ahh ok, is it easy to enable?
and yes, mailerlite is what links to the stripe payment page

haughty isle
#

I think you'll need to speak to MailerLite. They're creating the Checkout Sessions, so have control over how it's configured

round holly
#

ok, they are a bit more difficult to get into contact with unfortunately
but thanks for trying to help!

haughty isle
#

Really wish I could help more! But they control how you're integrating with Stripe
