  1. Select a product code in your Taxrates.io dashboard
  2. Select the countries/ states that you want the Tax rates for in your Taxrates dashboard
    1. Note: for US sales tax the reponse will return all the Zipcode’s along the sales tax rates for each State. If all US states are selected than you are dealing with a lot of data (around 39,185 rows).
  3. Make sure you are on Params in Postman
  4. You can filter the type of tax for any of the following types of sales tax rates, note: they are case sensitive
    • CombinedRate

    • CountyRate
    • CityRate
    • SPDRate
    • MTARate
  5. Taxrates.io will only return 500 rates at a time,(It's a large amount of data so we will send more with one response) to leave the cursor empty for the first page and use value form “X-Cursor-Next” header for the next one. See below to get all the tax rates in the responses:
    1. Send the first request
    2. Check the tab with response headers
    3. If there is a X-Next-Cursor - use it for the "cursor" parameter to get the next page
    4. If there is no header/ X-Next-Cursor - this is the last page

Get request. This method returns all tax rates configured on your account. Based on your country selection the endpoint will return all taxes for all countries. You can use the 'filter' parameter to narrow results to selected type of tax. Use 'zip' parameter when you have selected the United States.

We have development an easy to use scheduler so you can call the API to get the rates every hour or day. Please click on the following link to see the code on Github.

Please note in cases when a US state doesn't have sales tax and when a product is tax exempt for a zip code or for a state the API response will be "null"

To get a response you need to have selected a product code in your Taxrates.io dashboard, please see the Introduction section above for description of the different types of product codes.

For US sales tax you can filter the tax rate you want for each state or zip code with one of the following: (they are case sensitive)
