Urgent Help With Vat
Can someone please help me, I cannot seem to get VAT to be consitently added to all orders.
(Version 1.3.X)
I have added all of the UK counties under Zones.
Under "zone definitions" I have added a tax zone called UK
This has a "tax rate" called "taxable goods" @ 17.5%
Under "zone definitions - taxes, payment and shipping"
Country: United Kingdom
Zone: All Zones
(If I try and edit to change zone, all of the counties I added are here)
When a new customer is created and an order is processed there is not VAT added.
If I use a test customer I added then I see VAT?
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP, this is driving me mad

Re: Urgent Help With Vat
It appears that VAT is only added if the customer is in the same Zone (county) as the store (set under my store)

Hi There
I think this archive thread may help - it was titled a UK Configuration - it is very long now, but check out contributions by Kev - he has produced a downloadable template for UK config - it is by far and away the best starting place - configures all the VAT and converts times, dates and weights etc. The main thread is here, but I would start at the newest end and work back until you find the link to his site.
Unfortunately, I am not a my own computer at the moment and cannot paste it directly.

Re: Urgent Help With Vat
I think this is all due me setting the store basis of tax to "Store" rather than "Billing"

Re: Urgent Help With Vat
I had the same problem and found that tax is shown before and after login to all customers if under config>mystore you put
basis of product and shipping tax to "shipping"
but then I havent added all the uk counties as zones as they dont have different tax and I dont have different shipping costs for each county.. i just deleted all zones and have just UK as one zone then in tax rate it is set to just the "UK" zone and not "all zones"

Re: Urgent Help With Vat
Thanks for the help
I resolved the issue as discussed by changing the tax basis to billing.
To reply to another point, I only added the counties for completness sake to make me feel more english :)
