jgkiefer Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 How would I set up 2 different tax zones, California at 7.25 unless it is San Francisco which would be 8.50? I am not clear on how this is done. Thanks- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgkiefer Posted April 1, 2003 Author Share Posted April 1, 2003 How would I set up 2 different tax zones. http://wiki.oscommerce.com/helpAdminTaxes I now understand how to set the zone for CA. How do I set a sub-zone for CA called San Francisco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgkiefer Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Has anyone figured this out? I need to charge tax based on counties/zip codes here in Florida I am having the same problem. I just spent all day in sales tax class 8-( . California sales is charged if the business is in CA and the end product is delivered to a person in California. Now it gets confusing... I am required to charge state tax of 7.25 on all these oders unless the product is delivered to my county. Than the county tax of 8.50 is charged. Now if I choose I may collect "courtesy sales tax" for all counties in CA based on each counties rate, and this must be broken down and reported for each county. This sounds like a bookkeeping nightmare and I would rather go with the first solution. I am clueless on the OSC solution for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salewit Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 Sorry to reply to an old message, but I just got my Resale cert (California), and they specifically told me that I had to charge the tax based on the recipients address. But you're saying I just charge the flat 7.25 and then the additional only if the recipient is in my county? That doesn't make sense, and thats not what they told me. In fact I'm kind of assuming most people just ignore this rule and charge their local tax rate since whenever I go to an online shop in CA, they pretty much state "California residents will be charged 8.25% sales tax" without knowing where I'm from. Any wisdom on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 My understanding is that the tax rate must be based on the *delivery* address state/county combined - it can be done, but the county must be ascertained :) Matti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
