About WooCommerce

WooCommerce is the world's most widely used ecommerce platform, powering millions of live stores built on WordPress. It is the default choice for small-to-medium online sellers, typically solo entrepreneurs, small brands, and the agencies who build for them, who want full ownership of their store without recurring platform fees.

Acerca de la integración

VAT IT connects directly to your WooCommerce store, calculating the right sales tax or VAT at checkout in real time from the customer's actual address, and feeding that same data through to filings. The number a customer sees at checkout and the number in the compliance filing come from one source.

How it Works

Getting started with the WooCommerce integration is straightforward. Once connected, tax calculation runs automatically at checkout with no ongoing manual input required.

Find the VAT IT Tax Engine on the WordPress plugin directory and install it on your WooCommerce store. Before going live, use Test Mode or Sandbox Mode to trial the engine on real traffic. Nothing is submitted until you’re ready.

Enter your store name and click Connect to VAT IT. The authorisation runs through WooCommerce’s own screen, no API keys to copy and paste.

The right sales tax or VAT is calculated in real time from the customer’s actual address, at full state, county, city, and district level for US orders.

The same numbers that appear at checkout feed directly into your compliance filings. One source. No reconciliation needed.

Why Connect WooCommerce to VAT IT?

Most WooCommerce merchants selling across borders between the US and UK/EU don't realise what tax obligations that triggers. By the time they do, the exposure is often already material. The WooCommerce VAT IT integration removes that risk before it becomes a problem.

Who Is This Integration For?

The WooCommerce VAT IT integration is particularly valuable for businesses that:
Sell physical goods or digital products across borders between the US and UK/EU
Run a WooCommerce store built on WordPress
Don't have an in-house tax function and need compliance handled automatically on internal finance teams
Want the tax number at checkout and the number in their filing to always match

No. Until you click Connect, nothing is sent anywhere and your existing tax settings stay untouched. Disconnecting restores your store to its previous state.

Part of a Broader VAT Strategy

The WooCommerce integration covers US Sales Tax and VAT compliance, but VAT IT also supports businesses across the full spectrum of indirect tax, including VAT Reclaim and e-Invoicing. For businesses that need a single, coordinated partner across all areas of indirect tax, VAT IT provides that in one place.
