Stop guessing your VAT liability on shipping. Get precise, weight-based tax breakdowns in seconds. If you sell mixed-rate products to the EU, calculating the VAT due on your shipping income is a nightmare. Tax authorities require you to split the shipping VAT proportionally based on the value or weight of the goods in the box. Doing this manually for hundreds of orders is impossible.
