Tax rate settings
You can set your account's default tax rate and choose whether prices you type in the back-end include tax. You can also choose whether to display prices including or excluding tax on your website, and you can set other tax rates that can be assigned to specific products and services.
You can also set customer-specific tax rates. For example, you can apply the tax rate of the country the customer lives in. This tax rate overrides any default or item specific tax rates.
