I’ve checked “Enable tax rates and calculations“, but when I go to WooCommerce’ Tax tab, the Automated Taxes Dropdown is not there.
I have tested this on 2 different shops. WooCommerce versions I tested: 5.9.0 and 6.1.0.
Do you know what I could be missing?

I have selected “enable automated taxes”.
It is calculating the taxes incorrectly for Hawaii. Here the GET (sales taxes) are calculated differently than the rest of the country. It is kine convoluted so let me give an example:
The GET is 4.5% of the total receipt, therefore we are allowed to charge a maximum sell through tax of 4.712%.
ie: $1000 item
tax @ 4.712% = $47.12
total including GET = $1047.12
we remit 4.5% of $1047.12 = $47.12
(from the tax website “The maximum rate is greater than the tax rate because businesses are taxed on their gross receipts including GET that is charged to customers. This rate allows businesses to cover their entire GET expense.”)
I put a link to the HI tax document in the link to page field above.
yes, in essence they tax us on the tax! lol
How do I set a tax rule for HI so that this is calculated correctly? And still se auto taxes rest of the country?

]]>I watched several Q&A here and your blog when I tried to set up automated taxes
https://woocommerce.com/posts/woocommerce-sales-tax-for-the-us-how-to-enable-automated-calculations-and-filing/
Here are my concerns:
1) Since WooCommerce Services requires Jetpack, I’ve set up Wordfence already and worried that Jetpack would crash with Wordfence after I activated them altogether. Any other way to set up automated taxes using Wordfence?
2) This is a startup so I don’t need TaxJar for the moment. However, what plugin would you recommend if I’d sell products to US and EU in the future (warehouses in China or US)?
THanks
]]>I am building a woocommerce store in the USA and I would like to turn on automated taxes.
Why it’s not showing? Please help.
