Tax code

A tax code or tax class determines the applicable tax rate based on what you are selling.

Quaderno offers the following tax codes:

  • e-Service : for digital goods or services (excluding e-books).
  • e-Book : for electronic books.
  • SaaS : for Software as a Service (a.k.a. on-demand software).
  • Consulting : for consulting or other professional services in cases where sales in your own jurisdiction are taxable but sales to other jurisdictions are not taxable.
  • Standard rate : for any general goods or services not included in the categories above with standard tax rates.
  • Reduced rate : for any general goods or services not included in the categories above with reduced tax rates.
  • Tax-exempt : for any tax-exempted goods or services.

You can set the Default tax class you want to use in all your sales on the Preferences page.


While Quaderno supports worldwide tax calculations for the tax classes above, Quaderno does not support automatic calculations for excise goods, partial sales tax exemptions for clothing or other goods, or customs duties.
