VAT on Shipping

[gustav]

I need to charge VAT on the shipping costs that E-Junkie adds. In the UK shipping is a vatable charge. How would I go about doing this?

That is not possible yet

Hi,



Is this still the case? The reason I ask is that I think I've managed to do this or I'm missing something.



Under the heading 'Simple sales tax/vat settings' I have entered 15% into the 'sales tax/VAT rate' box.



In the EU VAT settings, I have 'checked' the 'Charge VAT' box.



Additionally, I have 'checked' the 'Charge sales tax and VAT on shipping and handling'.



Now when I add items to my cart the item total does not increase, but the shipping appears to have 15% added on.

Is this right?



Thanks,





Sam

You can enable the Charge VAT setting without specifying any specific tax %, and that will apply the proper VAT calculation for your and the buyer's respective countries. If you do specify a %, that will apply an extra tax percentage amount, in addition to standard VAT.

Hi Tyson,



Ah right, ok thanks for clarifying.
