What you owe, everywhere
GoodVat works out the sales tax, VAT or GST due on every BigCommerce order — by product, customer location and whether the buyer is a business.
Thresholds watched for you
Your BigCommerce sales are counted against every US state’s economic nexus limit and every VAT and GST threshold, with an alert before you need to register.
Registered and filed
Our local tax partners register you where you owe and file every return on time — priced per country and quoted upfront.

Do I still need GoodVat if BigCommerce handles tax?
BigCommerce applies tax at checkout from rates you set manually, or through a tax provider you connect. It doesn’t watch your thresholds across states and countries, register you, or file returns. GoodVat fills that gap: it tracks every threshold across all the places you sell, works out what you owe, and our local partners register you and file your returns.
What does GoodVat use from BigCommerce?

Can GoodVat register my business and file my returns?
Yes. Registration and filing are done by our vetted local tax partners in each region, using the data already in GoodVat. Because the work differs by country, it’s priced per country and quoted upfront. If you’d rather file yourself, every plan includes ready-to-file returns.
Which countries does GoodVat cover?
Sales tax, VAT and GST in 140+ countries — every US state and local jurisdiction, the EU, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, Singapore and more.
