Wondering, must I find out each province and state’s sales tax information, and manually enter the rate for each? If so … Seriously? LOL. Isn’t that something automatically done when total cost is calculated at checkout? Where would one find this information for each state/province, and how many days on average did it take anyone to complete said, “Tax Rules?”
Truly hoping I’ve misunderstood the intended used of “Tax Rules,” and what is expected to be created with its powers.

In the US taxes are only paid if the person purchasing is in the same state as the seller…so I would only have to set up taxes for North Carolina…and the general rule of thumb is use your own local tax %…
Since you are in Canada you will not have to set up the taxes, you do not file a US tax return…and the buyers are supposed to fill out a sales use tax form for internet purchases on their own taxes every year (though I imagine most don’t, hence the big internet tax debate)

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
