The Value Added Tax / Goods and Services Tax add-on provides means in X-Cart to charge customers a value-added tax (VAT) or a goods and services tax (GST).

This add-on is designed especially for businesses in the UK, EU, Australia, and other countries where the ability to charge VAT / GST is a must. The add-on allows you to use different tax rates based on the membership level and address of the customer. It also supports tax exemption based on the customer's VAT ID.

To configure taxes for Canada, use the Canadian taxes add-on.
