This release introduces a new Stripe Tax connector, now available in the Liferay Marketplace, designed to integrate directly with Liferay Commerce’s core transaction flows. This connector enables dynamic, automated tax calculation powered by Stripe Tax, replacing manual or static tax setups with an automated, accurate, and globally compliant solution.
Once installed and configured, the connector calculates taxes automatically at checkout based on the buyer’s shipping address and the seller’s tax registration settings. The integration is especially valuable for businesses operating in tax-complex regions like the United States, where tax rates and rules can vary dramatically between states, counties, and even cities.
By leveraging Stripe Tax through this connector, merchants benefit from seamless tax compliance, transparent pricing for buyers, and simplified tax reporting for administrators.
