# Set up Tax exempt for customer's order

**Tax-exempt** feature allows you to exclude taxes from a customer's order. The app will display **a tax section** in the cart (**cart drawer and cart page of your theme**) as well as in **our Quick Order Form**, where customers can enter their tax ID before checkout to receive a tax exemption.

For better understanding how to set it up, kindly follow the below instruction:&#x20;

### Step to manage:&#x20;

1. From the **App Dashboard page** > Go to the **Add-on features** page > Navigate to the **Tax exempt** section > **Set up tax exempt**:

2. In the **Tax exempt** setting page, set up **name** for this Tax setting and manage its **status** by toggling on and off slider:&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://810149679-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F7AXvWN0Sv4Sg8s2aVRWp%2Fuploads%2FByQ6zVewI0AmlrpUyXre%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=3d6a093c-6e95-4816-9808-978000f4bdc4" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

If you configure multiple tax-exempt settings, a **Priority** option will appear as shown below. This allows you to set the order of precedence. The higher the number, the higher the priority of that tax setting.

3. In the **Tax exempt general** section, you will set up how the tax exempt should function in your store.&#x20;

* At the moment, the app supports validating **5 types of tax ID**, tick on the type you want the app to work with (you can tick all or some types only):

<figure><img src="https://810149679-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F7AXvWN0Sv4Sg8s2aVRWp%2Fuploads%2Fsv0mYYNOV2S34gk2EV7e%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=ad1c73c0-8c8a-4583-9933-15eb4b07bcf9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* To recognize which order has tax-exempt, you can set up an order tag here. This tag will be auto-added to the customer's order once their order has been tax-excluded from the app:

<figure><img src="https://810149679-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F7AXvWN0Sv4Sg8s2aVRWp%2Fuploads%2Fsac4Ay3TCSOknrC9dsdd%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=6099d6c9-fe5f-4df7-b549-48df7ae3e44f" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* **Decide How Tax Is Charged:** This option help you add a Discount to Exclude Tax from Product Prices:

<figure><img src="https://810149679-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F7AXvWN0Sv4Sg8s2aVRWp%2Fuploads%2F3l0V4TlYn6LSNlDbvRaN%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=0e7f3ecd-4691-4c26-b503-d7ebeedd7d00" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

You can choose to **apply a discount to each item** to exclude the tax portion from the product price. If this option is enabled, the system will automatically apply a discount equivalent to the tax amount, as shown in this example:&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://810149679-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F7AXvWN0Sv4Sg8s2aVRWp%2Fuploads%2FK8aIEzWKKp4ZppXXAPlm%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=956dea35-2b28-48bb-9ef3-d20fae93a312" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Example:**

* Original product price: **$100**
* Applied tax rate: **10%**
* Discount applied to exclude tax: **\~$9.09**

\=> Final product price after discount: **$100 - $9.09 = $90.91**\
(10% tax on $90.91 is approximately $9.09, so the total remains $100)

**Note:**\
If the product already has an existing discount (e.g., wholesale pricing), the tax-exempt discount will be *added on top* of the current discount.

4. In the **Customer condition** section, you can choose which type of customers will get this tax-exempt applied.&#x20;

It can be for everyone accesses your store or only some specific customers who login/login with tag:

5. **Tax Exempt Setup on Cart:** This setting helps you configure how the tax ID is validated in the cart.&#x20;

There are 3 options, you can tick on all or only specific ones:
