Automatically collect tax on invoices

You can add customer location information in the Customer details page by clicking Edit next to Details. To add a customer’s location from the Invoice Editor, click the overflow menu () next to the customer. Select Edit customer information, click Add additional details, and scroll down to Billing details.

After you update the location, click Update customer. Stripe applies the new location to all of your customer’s future invoices unless you update it. For more information, see Determine customer locations.

On the Products page, you can select both the tax behavior for a particular price and the optional tax code for the product. The tax behavior is per price. You can’t change the tax behavior after you select it, but you can create new prices or archive old ones. To set up a tax behavior, click Add a price (or Add another price if you already have one) and select it from the Tax behavior drop-down menu.

To set up a tax code, select it from the Tax code drop-down menu when you create a new product or edit the details of an existing one.

Customize tax settings for one-off line items

Enable the Use automatic tax collection toggle on the tax settings page to automatically enable tax calculation on new invoices you create in the Dashboard.
