Tax Settings Management

What Are Tax Settings?

This is the area where we can configure settings such as the tax rates for products, shipping fees and payment type service fees.

How Can I Access Tax Settings?

We can access this area by following the steps “Configuration >> Settings >> Tax Settings”. Now let's look at what we can do on this screen.
