Is there a way to import and export tax rules? My website will sell and ship products from California, USA, which has a crazy tax schedule which varies from county to county across the state and gets revised every few years by local and state laws. I would like to be able to update a .csv file then upload it as needed. I just don't know if it is possible to import such a file into Hikashop within the tax categories/rules tab. If there is, what format should the columns follow?

Thank you,
Rene

Hi,

There is no import system in the interface for tax rules. It's possible to create a plugin like we wrote to insert in bulk tax rules:
www.hikashop.com/support/2-uncategorised...urope-vat-rules.html
But that's complex if you're not a developer.

Why not use a system like TaxCloud ( www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...on/260-taxcloud.html ) or Avalara ( polishedgeek.com/services/hikashop-ecommerce-tax-automation ) which will calculate the taxes for you automatically ?
It is updated automatically for you so you don't even have to keep it updated in the future.
And even better, the TaxCloud one can be free to use in some cases.
