hi tarzan

#

i am using laravel stripe

#

but i need a way to manually apply VAT on a checkout instance

#

this auto tax thing is abysmal

#

you could use the https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-tax_rates

Stripe API reference – Create a Session – curl

Complete reference documentation for the Stripe API. Includes code snippets and examples for our Python, Java, PHP, Node.js, Go, Ruby, and .NET libraries.

do i need to set that tax rate on each individual product (line item) or can i set it globally for that checkout instance?

#

are you creating Checkout for subscriptions or one-off payments?

knotty pelican May 20, 2022, 9:05 AM

#

one off payments

#

subscriptions is fine as that pulls the taxrate via cashier

#

this is the code currently

#

in one-offs you have to pass the tax by line item unfortunately

if($currency == 'GBP'){
return $user
->allowPromotionCodes()
->checkout($OneTime, [
'automatic_tax' => [
'enabled' => true,
],
'success_url' => route('upgrade-checkout-complete') . '?session_id={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}',
'cancel_url' => route('upgrade-product-select'),
]);
} else {
return $user
->allowPromotionCodes()
->checkout($OneTime, [
'automatic_tax' => [
'enabled' => false,
],
'success_url' => route('upgrade-checkout-complete') . '?session_id={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}',
'cancel_url' => route('upgrade-product-select'),
]);
}

#

so i need to pass the tax with each product?

#
