    Hello,
    I assume that the shipping cost includes VAT (for the EU countries).
    How can we add VAT on the shipping cost ? (or include VAT whithin the Shipping Cost?).
    What is the VAT class of shipping in the EU countries? Standard?
    Thank you

    I need to add that in most EU countries the International and intra-community transport has Zero tax. Is the shipping cost of parcels included in the International transport?

    Hi there,

    the OSS plugin does not take care of shipping costs and/or shipping costs taxation. You’ll need to talk to your tax consultant about taxation issues. Please do also check: https://woocommerce.com/document/setting-up-taxes-in-woocommerce/ for more information.

    Cheers

    The WooCommerce allows only Shipping Tax Status as Taxable or None.
    If somebody has a stable shipping price, for example 10 Euros for all European countries, the only way to keep this price the same (including tax) is the following:
    1. Woocomerce –> Shipping –> Tax Status –> Taxable
    2. Woocomerce –> Tax –> Shipping Tax class based on cart items
    3. Adding the following code snippet at function.php: https://pastebin.com/jifVtqFQ
    It worked fine on my case!
    (So now shipping to Germany contains 1,9 Euros VAT and 8,1 Euros net price = 10 euros. Shipping to France contains 2,0 Euros VAT and 8,0 Euros net price etc…)
