SuiteTax provides greater flexibility to support specific country needs and legislation changes regarding tax calculation and reporting. For example, SuiteTax helps you manage in-country transactions (sales tax, VAT or GST), and numerous special tax situations and rules, such as intra-EU transactions, 3PL, reverse charges, and others. SuiteTax also lets you use different tax calculation engines for nexuses and override tax details on transactions.
SuiteTax API uses internal or external tax engines to calculate taxes for transactions in NetSuite. A tax engine represents an implementation of the SuiteTax plug-in feature. The plug-in implementation defines the process by which the tax engine calculates taxes on a transaction. Contact your NetSuite account manager for information about tax engine implementations.
