Cross-border price consistency
Cross-border trade (also referred to as price consistency) supports European Union (EU) and other merchants who want to maintain consistent prices for customers whose tax rates are different from the store tax rate.
Merchants operating across regions and geographies can display a single price by including the tax in the price of the product. Pricing is clean and uncluttered regardless of tax structures and rates that vary from country to country. These settings require that a tax calculation extension is installed from the Marketplace, such as Vertex Cloud.
