    Hello. I have an online store and I’ve recently moved to a new state. I need to set up tax rates based on counties. Some of the (same) zip codes have different rates… I prefer not to have to download any extra widgets…
    Thanks so much for any advice!

    Hi @sleeneys,

    While there isn’t a county setting for taxes in WooCommerce you can narrow down taxes to cities if zip codes aren’t exact enough.

    There isn’t anything else to download though, these settings are part of WooCommerce core. Just be sure first in the General tab of the settings you enable taxes, from there you can setup rates in the Tax tab and then the Standard rates sub section.

    Thanks so much, Ryan! I don’t have a list of the cities (I know I could get one) and am afraid that there may be a TON of them to list. Will WooCommerce make this easier by adding counties at some point?
    I was going to just add the zip codes. But the issue is that some of the zip codes have different tax rates, so if I put that zip code in, I need more than one rate…
    Thank you Ryan so much for your help!!

    @sleeneys Have you looked into WooCommerce Services for tax rates?
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-services/

    It’s an automated service that provides accurate results.

    Hi Jesse. Thank you so much for telling me about this! So, it looks great! I will look more into it tonight. It looks as though it will automate the taxes and help with shipping, too, which is great. Thanks again so much and I’ll definitely check into it in more detail!

    Hi @sleeneys,

    WooCommerce Services is indeed great, in my humble opinion. 😛

    It offers automated tax rates (which would hopefully work for your situation) and then has USPS shipping for stores in the U.S., which even lets you print shipping labels from within each order in WooCommerce.

    Let us know if that works out well for you, fingers crossed here.
