# Problem shipping rates

 * Hi there,
 * I have a problem with Woocommerce calculating wrong shipping costs.
 * I have products with 10% tax and products with 20% tax rate. But I always need
   5 Euro shipping cost inc. tax (regardless the tax rate), so I tried using shipping
   rates to create a shipping rate and enter a different shipping specifically for
   the products with the reduced tax rate like so:
 * [Image](https://postimg.cc/H8M7FJgc)
 * So the shipping incl. of tax should always be 5 Euro, regardless of which and
   how many products are in the cart. But it is not working. When I have ONLY standard
   OR reduced tax rate items in the cart, the price of the shipping is correct –
   5 Euro. But if both, products with standard rate and products with reduced rate
   are in the cart, the shipping is 5,46 Euro, even though in the shipping rate 
   options I have set “Per order: Charge shipping for the most expensive shipping
   class” (see my screenshot above). What am I doing wrong?

 * Hi [@stevert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stevert/),
 * I’d like to get a look at a few things from your site to try and understand what
   may be happening.
 * First, could you please send me a copy of your site’s System Status? You can 
   find it via WooCommerce > Status.
 * Second, do you see this issue occur regardless of the location being shipped 
   to, or is it only specific locations where this is occurring?
 * Please let us know and we’ll be happy to assist further.
