Setting Sales Tax / VAT Rates

This section sets the rate of sales tax / VAT for the online store. For most online stores this will be the most appropriate method to use instead of applying rates individually to products or product groups, since most businesses do not carry such a broad range of products within their store.

Should you not wish to charge sales tax ( for instance you are not VAT registered) insert Zero value.

If the store's products carry different rates of tax then these will need to set from the " product settings " link within Sales Tax section

To apply same Sales Tax / VAT on all products in your online shop;

  • Select "Business Settings" from top menu after login in.
  • Select "Store Settings" under the Sales Tax section in left menu
  • Enter rate of Sales Tax / VAT as a percentage.( do not include the percentage sign)
  • Press "Insert".

European Union Based Customers

During the check out stage the actual amount of sales tax applicable for the order will be displayed separately within the cart. For intra-European Union country sales, where special rules apply, VAT will be applied as appropriate. For instance if a customer is based in France and merchant is in United Kingdom then VAT will be applied as follows;

  • If Customer is himself VAT registered, he will be prompted to provide his VAT number. If he does provide this number he will not be charged Vat and he himself must pay VAT to his local VAT office at his own countries VAT rate.
  • If customer is not VAT registered in his own country, he must say so and he will be charged VAT at the United Kingdom standard rate of tax (17.5%)

The customer will provide his VAT number via the getvatinfo.htm template

Displaying VAT Inclusive and VAT Exclusive Prices

By default both prices will be displayed on the online store. However, individual stores can choose to display the either one, both or neither. This is done by modifying the "username.htm" template (Read this article about how to do this). To not display, use HTML comment tags around the appropriate variable. Do not delete the variable.
