State tax confusion

Some countries have import taxes , such as New Zealand, which are easy to add in the Alidropship plugin. However, I noticed some states in US also have taxes that are automatically added to the purchasing price on AliExpress. New York seems to have a state tax of about 8%. How can this be added to the price in Alidropship or do you have a fix coming?

I'm having trouble with sale taxes myself. But remember you have to be a registered VAT (by reaching a selling point for a specific country) and are a business, by then you can charge your customers taxes. I just read that here, just some extra information.

And to answer your question, if you want to add taxes to your products, you can go to your Wordpress ➡ Alidropship ➡ Settings ➡ Taxes
There you will have options, and the Knowledge Based in there as well, click on "How it works"

And if you use Paypal, there is an option for you to add taxes inside Paypal, so the customers can be charged there.

Thanks! Sure, I know how to add taxes to a single country in the plugin and have it for select countries. I just don't know how to add different state taxes for all the 50 states in the US. And I don't think it's possible to do that in the plugin.

Moreover, my company is not registered in US and I would prefer not to add any VAT.

Yes, you're absolutely right! Thanks. :)

Now I just need to figure out what the different state taxes are for US.
