How did you solve adding VAT?

1

Hello, I am selling to Europe and therefore need to calculate VAT from the price. I’ve tried almost everything, but if the order comes to funnelish and then send it to shopify, it doesn’t include VAT, which is wrong. I need to set up funnelish to be able to send the total price with calculated VAT to shopify.

Can someone please advise me how to solve this? Or if it can be programmed somehow?

Thanks a lot.

Hi @Ondrej_Volny,
if you want VAT based on the price, then it must be collected via TaxJar app.

Here’s the guidance to it: TaxJar | Funnelish Docs

Hi Dominik,

Hope all is well!

The 3 ways of charging taxes that we got at the moment are:

  1. Through TaxJar - in which case you must setup inside taxjar what tax you need to collect and in what locations.

  2. Or, if the tax you want to collect is a fixed fee, so let’s say you need $5 to be added to ALL orders regardless of the order value, then in this case you can create a product, call it TAX or VAT or whatever you wish, give it a price, and hide it from the product list like this:

This way that fee will always be charged from all orders, regardless of the order value,

  1. Ofcourse, include the VAT inside the product price for each product, then mention inside the product info/displayed price that it also includes the VAT.

Hope this clarified a bit more here, let me know if struggling with anything,
Best,
Ana @ Funnelish

I don’t understand why Funnelish doesn’t have a Tax collection function.
To collect correct sales tax, you must also have a TaxJar Pro account, a minimum of $99/month, because the basic TaxJar account doesn’t provide an API function.
So, think again before you subscribe to Funnelish, cause if you need to collect Sales Tax, it would cost you $99 more per month.
