thank you, your answer made me Test different countries.
When I give myself german location I get tax as it should be. It’s displaying it in the cart and in the order later on. All good.
giving myself US country there is no tax applied at all at the checkout.
For tax countries I only have Germany configured I didn’t know that I had to list any country I want to sell wir the according tax %
so I assume the tax is not gone it just never got applied to the customer in the first place, great
