TAX Overrides and Exemptions


All our default taxes are calculated automatically, however, you can override (Edit) these tax rates to apply any specific tax rate.

You can edit our default tax rate for the following reasons:

  • For a specific item.
  • Selling in other countries/states.
  • For tax-exempt customers.
If you do not need to apply tax on listings then do not "enable tax on listings" on your Global Settings page.
Alternatively, you can uncheck Apply Tax option on the sell page.

You should always check with a local tax authority or a tax accountant to make sure that you charge your customers the correct sales tax rates, and to make sure you file and remit the taxes correctly.


How do i override (Edit) these tax rates?

  1. To override (Edit) the invoice, locate the sale and select the “Edit” button on the right side.
  2. Scroll down to the Tax Field and apply the correct tax rate for your item.
Don't forget to update the changes.

Paid Invoices can't be edit. Seller should state in there description if there will be tax adjustment because once the invoice is paid, invoice can't be edited at all.

When you make changes to the tax rate (including any other invoice edits) we recalculate the Invoice Totals automatically.

If you are tax exempt - then you can zero (0) the tax field on your invoices. 
Make sure to add your tax information in your Personal Information page and update your account settings page.

If you would like to combine invoices, the same process will apply, you will need to edit each one before you combine invoices.
Read our article about combine invoices.
