How we calculate taxes
If your origin address is in the US and differs from your customer’s state, Stripe always calculates tax based on your customer’s location.
If your customer is in Mississippi and your origin address is also in Mississippi, Stripe applies tax based on your origin address, depending on the type of product or service you sell.
Report and file your taxes
Stripe provides reports of your completed tax transactions. Go to Registrations to access these reports.
Exports
The tax transaction data export provides a comprehensive and aggregated view of transactions by location, including a breakdown of individual tax amounts. Learn more about tax reporting exports.
Location reports
Location reports offer a summary of transaction and refund data for specific US locations and align with Mississippi filing requirements. You have the option to report on an annual, quarterly, or monthly basis.
Filing
You are responsible for filing and remitting your taxes to Mississippi. Stripe doesn’t file taxes on your behalf. For automating filing in the US, we recommend using TaxJar’s AutoFile solution.
