I added tax rates, so why is no tax showing at checkout?

Tax is probably still switched off for your store. Rates only apply when tax is enabled.

Go to Settings → Store Settings → Manage Tax. If you see a yellow box saying Tax is turned off for this store, click Enable tax in it. Or:

1. Click Tax Settings.
2. Tick Enable tax on this store.
3. Click Save Settings.

Then check:

• A rate matches the customer's address. A rate with every level set to *All ()** is your store-wide default.
• The rate isn't 0%. Zero rates add nothing.
• If Product prices already include tax (inclusive) is ticked in Tax Settings, tax is already inside your prices, so the total doesn't go up.

Place a test order to confirm the tax line appears.
