How to charge tax: VAT, Sales tax & GST (with Stripe Tax)

Automatically calculate and collect taxes on your sales. We integrate with Stripe Tax to help you calculate, collect and remit VAT, Sales tax and/or GST on your sales.

Stripe Tax

Stripe Tax provides you with helpful, detailed reports that you can use to report and remit your taxes.

It also monitors when you may have exceeded a tax threshold in a country you're not currently registered to pay tax.

Stripe Tax is priced separately by Stripe. Checkout Page does not charge any additional fees for you to use Stripe Tax.

These are Stripe's fees to use Stripe Tax:

  • Subscriptions: 0.5% per transaction, where you’re registered to collect taxes
  • One-time payments: 50¢ per transaction, where you’re registered to collect taxes

  1. The Tax ID will be validated based on the format, but it’s up to you to validate if the Tax ID registration matches the customer information.
  2. The tax will be (re)calculated as your customer moves through your checkout form, based on the checkout price, customer location and customer Tax ID.
  3. Stripe will charge the taxable amount on all recurring payments, display the tax on your customer invoices and provide you with exports of your transactions.
