Additional tax settings

These settings also affect how tax information appears on Invoices.

  • Display Country Code in Front of Tax ID (VAT Number)
    Shows the Customer’s country code before the Tax ID (VAT Number) on the Invoice.
  • Display Tax Line Item (previously named Display VAT Line Item)
    Adds a Rate, Amount, and Gross Amount column to each Invoice line item that's subject to tax, on Invoices, Credit Notes, and Debit Notes. On Invoices billed in Australian or New Zealand dollars, the columns apply to any tax on the document and are labeled GST Rate and GST Amount. On Invoices billed in other currencies, the columns apply only to EU VAT or UK VAT, whether the tax is calculated by a custom EU VAT tax or by the Avalara integration. They are labeled VAT Rate and VAT Amount.
  • Display Taxable Amount
    Shows the taxable amount the tax was calculated from, on the Invoice.
