Taxually

Taxually connects your WooCommerce store to automated global tax compliance — calculate VAT, GST, and US sales tax at checkout, and let Taxually’s tax experts handle registration, filing, and remittance across 150+ countries.

Setup and Configuration

Getting started

↑ Back to top

To connect your store with Taxually:

1. Go to: WooCommerce > Settings > Tax > Taxually.
2. Click Connect to Taxually and sign in (or create an account).
3. You’re connected. Taxually pulls your transaction data automatically and starts monitoring your compliance obligations right away.
4. When you’re ready, turn on Enable tax calculations at checkout. It’s off by default after connecting, so nothing changes at checkout until you explicitly enable it.

Advanced configuration

↑ Back to top

• Enable tax calculations at checkout: off by default after connecting. Turn this on in Settings once you’re ready for Taxually to calculate and apply tax live — until then, checkout uses your existing WooCommerce tax setup unchanged.
• Already using another tax calculation tool? Keep it, and use Taxually only for registration, filing, and remittance — leave “Enable tax calculations at checkout” off. If you’d rather have Taxually handle checkout tax too, disable your other tool’s calculation first to avoid double taxation (WooCommerce doesn’t prevent two tax plugins running at once).
• Product classification happens automatically in the background — there’s no manual tax-code mapping step to complete first.
• Business tax ID at checkout: Taxually adds a tax ID field to checkout for B2B buyers. If you already collect this via EU VAT Number, EU VAT for WooCommerce, or Germanized, Taxually detects and imports it automatically.

This plugin connects to the Taxually API for two purposes:

1. Tax compliance sync — after you connect your store, your WooCommerce transaction data (orders, line items, and customer billing details) is transmitted to Taxually on an ongoing basis for VAT/sales tax registration, filing, and remittance.
2. Checkout tax calculation — only if you turn on “Enable tax calculations at checkout” in Settings. When enabled, the customer’s billing/shipping address and cart contents are sent to Taxually in real time on every checkout so the correct tax rate can be calculated. This does not happen unless you explicitly enable this setting.

By installing this plugin, data from your store is transmitted to Taxually as described above.

Troubleshooting

↑ Back to top

• Tax isn’t calculating at checkout — confirm the store is connected (Settings → Tax → Taxually) and that “Enable tax calculations at checkout” is switched on.
• Settings show “Action needed: Reconnect” — your connection needs re-authorizing; click Reconnect and sign in again. This doesn’t affect any tax already calculated.
• Getting double tax at checkout — you likely have another tax plugin also calculating tax. Only one calculation source should be active at a time; disable the other.
• Tax Radar or Registrations look out of date — data refreshes automatically but can take a few minutes; use the Refresh button on the settings page to force an update.
