3 Introduction to Tax By City Managing tax is always complicated for any business. It is more complicated if you are managing the ecommerce store and selling products in United States because each state has a different tax rate. Native Magento systems only support to manage the tax based on the Country, State and Zip-code. It's not possible to manage the tax based on the City. To overcome this issue, DCKAP developed the module 'Tax by City', which is used to manage the tax rate based on the city. Below are the list of Scenarios we considered while developing the Tax by City Module. Same City Name may exist in different Zip code but Tax rate may vary. Same Zip Code may exist for different City but Tax rate may vary. Same City Name will come under specific zip code ranges. Once the customer orders a product, during checkout, Tax by City calculates the tax based on the Shipping Address of the Customer. The calculated tax amount is automatically added to the invoice so that the customers are well informed about the tax component.

Sample Scenarios Let us take the scenario in which 2 different cities, Baldwin Hills and Leimert Park. Both have the same zip code 90008, but different tax rates, 7% and 8% respectively. Even though the above cities have the same zip code, Tax by City extension has the provision to provide different tax rates as required in the above scenario. In a slightly different version of the above scenario, we can create a tax rate with city name field empty with 7.5 % tax rate, which in turn will be applied to all the remaining cities under the zip code

13 Let us assume that a particular city, Leimert Park, has a range of zip codes, say to Tax by City extension allows you to define the city and the range. As a continuation of the above scenario, some other city within that range, say Baldwin Hills, has a zip code of and a different tax rate, Tax by City provides the provision to enter the city name (Baldwin Hills), zip code (90008) and a different tax rate for the same.
