Tax based on ticket seller's status

[Chris]

In Australia whoever is putting the tickets for sale is the decider of whether tax is paid for those tickets.

Just wondering if we could have a feature to allow a couple of fields:

1. Tax ID
2. Tax Status

Where Tax ID for example in Australia is their ABN, and Tax Status would be ‘Charge Tax’, and ‘Tax Free’ (to keep both fields generic for other countries with this option also.

Not sure about other carts, however there are hooks to ignore tax (so global setting for tax is on, but per transaction it is ignored based on the SELLER of the tickets (not the SERVICE – aka the website owner) – this is for COMMUNITY TICKETS, not EVENT TICKETS…

I’ll supply my hack in due course via bitbucket, but it would be great to roll this into the product for other people

Hello again Chris,

This sounds like a good idea. I encourage you to visit our User Voice Page and make a suggestion there. If it collects enough votes than it has a high chance of making it into the core.

Until then, if you are using WooCommerce, you can go to the products and edit the ticket there. You can set the tax status manually if needed, but I guess you knew that already.

We would be super happy to see your hack, and I’m sure other users will be able to make use of it too.

Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.

Cheers,
Andras
