    Hi All,

    I searched for a solution but I haven’t found it and this is why I open this topic.

    I have a client who would like to deliver different kind of products with different VAT rates. According to the Hungarian regulations the shipping VAT should based on the highest VAT rate in the cart.

    My client want to have the same delivery price regardless of the applied VAT for the shipping, and therefor the gross price is fixed not the net.

    Please see the image below how it should work, and any suggestions is highly appreciated to solve this question.

    @naposoldal Out of the box, the shipping tax class is inherited from the item being shipped.

    Here is how the shipping tax class is handled when products from multiple classes are in the cart:

    • If you have a product with the Standard rate in the order, it will be used for the shipping regardless if this rate is high or low;
    • If you don’t have a product with the Standard rate in the order, then the first rate found in the Additional tax class section will be used for shipping.

      • So if you want to ensure that the highest tax class is always attached to shipping, you’ll need to make sure that the standard rate is not used, and that your additional tax classes are added in the correct order.

      I recommend reading this section of the documentation, as it will help illustrate how this works.
