with your tax settings done let's go
into standard rates and create an
example tax rate go to WooCommerce
settings tax and then standard rates if
you enable taxes in the quick setup
wizard you should have at least one tax
row here already that won't teach you
much though so let's create a new row
select insert row and let's talk about
each field here first it's country code
which is a two digit code for example US
you can leave this blank to apply this
rate to all countries following that is
state code again a two digit code fourth
in the US use a two digit abbreviation
for example I n for Indiana as before
you can leave blank to apply to all
states within the country next up you
can enter it or post codes for this rate
you can separate multiple zip or post
goes with a semicolon also you can use
wildcards and match several post codes
automatically for example PE with an
asterisk would match all post codes
starting with PE you can also use
numeric ranges for example 2000 to 3000
finally you can leave a blank to apply
to all zip or post codes in the City
field you can use a semicolon separate a
list of cities leave blank to apply to
all cities now we're at the most
important field for rate percent enter
your required or desired tax rate for
example in Indiana enter 7.000 for the
state's sales tax of 7% with tax name
you can name your tax rate in our
example we'll name it sales tax next in
priority choose a priority for this tax
rate only one matching rate per priority
will be used to define multiple tax
rates for a single area you need to
specify a different priority per rate
for compound participate as compound and
applies on top of all prior taxes check
or uncheck accordingly then finally
shipping if this rate also applies the
shipping check the shipping box with
this knowledge let's recap what we just
set up this is the sales tax setup for
Indiana the country code is set to us
for the United States then I n for the
Indiana State code we'll need the zip
code and City fields blank to cover
every location in Indiana sales tax rate
is 7% in the state so we've entered 7.00
we'll then name it sales tax with the
priority set to one we don't want to
compound this on top of other prior
taxes but we do want it to apply to
shipping
just a note you can set additional
standard rates if you need to by
selecting insert row again and adding
more rates as needed if you do add
additional rates WooCommerce holders
than buy specificity meaning it looks to
apply your most specific rate first then
moving to broader rates for example from
Sevilla specific rates to state to
Country rates you can also select your
other classes if you need to add rates
to those as well Congrats again on
setting up your first tax rate if you
need any inspiration we have more
examples and tips in our documentation
so be sure to read over those save your
tax rate by selecting Save Changes and
you're done thanks for watching
