# Understanding Stripe Tax pricing Stripe Tax offers two plans: * **Tax Complete** offers tax registrations, calculations, collections and filings, and is priced as a monthly subscription with a 1-year contract. * **Tax Basic** offers tax calculations and collections only, and is priced on a pay-as-you-go basis. [Fees](https://stripe.com/tax/pricing) for Stripe Tax are automatically deducted from your Stripe Balance, and are based on the location of the merchant, regardless of where the transaction takes place. For example, a merchant based in the US, selling products to various countries, will be charged in US$. While the prices in this article are listed in US$, a merchant will be charged an equivalent amount in their local currency. --- ## Tax Complete: Subscription-based pricing This is an annual contract, paid monthly. The option to sign up for Tax Complete is only available if it's supported in your region. If eligible, sign up or switch to a subscription-based plan from the [**Your plans**](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/plans) page in the Stripe Dashboard. The monthly subscription fee is deducted from your Stripe Balance at the start of each billing period. Any overage fees and additional fees for registrations and filings outside of the US, are deducted after the billing period ends. Tax Complete offers four pricing tiers. Each tier includes a set number of tax registrations, transactions, calculations and filings. Overage fees may apply if you exceed these limits. ### Subscription tiers and overages - **Tier (per month)** - **Transactions** - **Calculation API calls** - **Registration and Filing** --- - US$90 - 200 transactions per month US$0.50 per additional transaction - 2,000 calculations per month US$0.05 per additional calculation - 2 registrations per year 4 filings per year See fees below for overages and services outside the US --- - US$430 - 1,000 transactions per month US$0.48 per additional transaction - 10,000 calculations per month US$0.05 per additional calculation - 4 registrations per year 12 filings per year See fees below for overages and services outside the US --- - US$1000 - 2,500 transactions per month US$0.46 per additional transaction - 25,000 calculations per month US$0.05 per additional calculation - 6 registrations per year 20 filings per year See fees below for overages and services outside the US --- - US$1500 - 5,000 transactions per month US$0.35 per additional transaction - 50,000 calculations per month US$0.04 per additional calculation - 10 registrations per year 32 filings per year See fees below for overages and services outside the US View our subscription and cancellation terms for examples and more information. ### Fees for registration and filings #### Registrations Registrations in the US for remote sellers are provided by Stripe and registrations outside the US are provided by Taxually. Registrations are priced on a per-registration basis and depend on the location of the registration. Your subscription tier includes a set number of registrations. If you complete a registration outside the US, the "Additional registration fee" applies (see table below). If you exceed the number of registrations in your subscription tier, the "Overages" fee applies for each additional registration. In some countries, like Colombia, you'll see higher pricing, which reflects the increased operational and regulatory costs we have there. - **Region** - **Additional registration fee** - **Overages** (if you exceed the number of registrations included in your plan) --- - US - US$0 - 150$US --- - Colombia - US$1050 - US$1200 --- - All other countries not listed above - US$150 - US$300 Registrations outside of the US will still count towards your limit. For instance, on the 90 US$ subscription plan, you receive 2 registrations per year. You can register in a US state at no additional cost and also register in Colombia for an additional cost of 1050 US$. #### Filing Filing services for Stripe Tax users are provided by [Taxually](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/file-with-taxually) and [TaxJar](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/file-with-taxjar). Filing is priced on a per-filing basis, and depends on the location of the filling. Your subscription tier includes a set number of filings. If you complete a filing outside the US, an "Additional filing fee" applies (see table below). If you exceed the number of filings in your subscription tier, the "Overages" fee applies for each additional filing. Filings outside of the US will still count towards your limit. For instance, on the 90 US$ subscription plan, you receive 4 filings per year. You can file in two US states at no additional cost, file in Mexico for an additional cost of 945 US$ and file monthly in Colombia for an additional cost of 45 US$ per year. In some countries, like Japan, you'll see higher pricing, which reflects the increased operational and regulatory costs we have there. - **Region** - - **Additional filing fee** - **Overages** _**(if you exceed the number of filings included in your plan)**_ --- - US - - US$0 - 55$US --- - Canada - - US$0 - US$55 --- - Europe - - - --- - EU-based businesses, or those not requiring fiscal representation: - - --- - - Monthly Filings - US$45 - US$100 --- - - Quarterly Filings - US$145 - US$200 --- - - OSS (Union OSS and IOSS) - US$145 - US$200 --- - Non EU-based businesses requiring fiscal representation: - - --- - - Monthly Filings - US$145 - US$200 --- - - Quarterly Filings - US$445 - US$500 --- - - OSS (Union OSS and IOSS) - US$445 - US$500 --- - Mexico - - US$945 - US$1000 --- - Japan - - US$4745 - US$4800 --- - Morocco - - US$245 - US$300 --- - All other countries - Monthly Filings - US$45 - US$100 --- - - Quarterly Filings - US$145 - US$200 EC Sales List reports, Intrastat reports and other local tax filings are charged as individual filings. ## Tax Basic: Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) pricing PAYG pricing is usage-based and determined by the number of transactions or the sales volume that you process through Stripe Tax for tax calculation and collection. You only incur fees for transactions in jurisdictions where you have an active tax registration. The pricing differs based on the type of integration you use (no code vs API). ### PAYG no-code integration with Stripe Billing, Invoicing, Checkout, and Payment Links PAYG pricing for Stripe Tax no-code integration is 0.5% of the volume processed, in jurisdictions where you are registered to collect tax. This volume includes the complete transaction amount, including any calculated sales tax. ### PAYG Stripe Tax API pricing Stripe Tax provides two distinct APIs: [Calculations API](https://stripe.com/docs/api/tax/calculations/create) and [Transactions API](https://stripe.com/docs/api/tax/transactions/create_from_calculation). Both APIs are priced based on the number of API calls you make. * Transaction API price per call: US$0.50 * Calculation API price per call: US$0.05 [Fees](https://stripe.com/tax/pricing) for the API are specific to each market and based on the location of the merchant, regardless of where the transaction takes place. For example, a merchant based in the US, selling products to various countries, is charged in US$ for all transactions. ### Stripe Tax Calculations API only You'll be charged from your Stripe Balance on a daily basis for all Calculation API calls made. ### Stripe Tax Calculations and Transactions APIs With every Transaction API call, you receive up to 10 Calculation API calls for free. If you exceed the 10 Calculation API calls per Transaction API call, 0.05 US$ is charged per additional Calculation call. This is aggregated on a monthly basis. Stripe Tax API customers are charged on a daily basis for all Calculation and Transaction API calls made. At the end of each calendar month, a rebate is applied if there's a difference in Calculation API calls. Rebates are typically completed by the end of the month, followed by an additional three business days. Unused Calculation API calls don't carry over to the next month.

You need to call the Transaction API specifically for Stripe Tax. This is consistent for all Stripe API products. **Can I use Registrations and Filings if I'm on a custom pricing plan?** Yes, users on a custom pricing plan for tax calculations can purchase registrations and filings directly in the [Dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/plans). You'll be charged the overage rates mentioned above. Custom pricing is available for companies with large payments volume, high-value transactions or unique business models. ## Related articles [Stripe tax fee use cases](https://stripe.com/docs/tax/how-tax-works#pricing)
