Your tax, called what it is actually called

Most invoice apps give you a box marked "tax %". That is fine until you need the document to say GST, show a GSTIN, and split into CGST and SGST for a sale inside your own state.

Pick the country, everything follows

Set your country once in the business profile and three things change across the whole app:

• What the tax is called — GST, VAT, Sales Tax, JCT, SST, TVA, IVA, KDV
• What your registration number is called — GSTIN, VAT number, ABN, EIN, TRN, UEN, NZBN
• The usual rates, as one-tap options — India's 5/18/40, the UK's 20 and 5, Australia's 10

You can still type any rate on any line. The defaults are a starting point, not a constraint.

Where there is no single national rate, we say so

The United States has no national sales tax — the rate depends on the state, county and often the city, and most professional services are not taxed at all. Brazil splits indirect tax across ICMS, ISS, PIS and COFINS and is mid-reform.

For those countries the app leaves the rate blank rather than inventing a number, and explains why. A confidently wrong default is worse than no default. Read the US detail.

Tax on a discounted invoice, done correctly

When an invoice shows a discount, the tax is charged on the discounted value, not the list price. A lot of tools get this wrong and over-collect.

Bill 4,100, discount 5%, and the taxable value is 3,895 — the tax follows the money that actually changes hands.
