# Tax Settings

When configuring tax settings, consider the following questions:

* Is your site tax exempt?
* Which states within the United States do you need to collect taxes from?

## Configure Tax Settings

To configure out-of-the-box tax settings:

1. Go to **System** > **Settings** > **Tax**.
2. Select the **Tax Exempt** checkbox if your site is tax exempt. If not, select the locations you need to charge tax for from the **Collect Taxes for the Following States** drop-down menu.
3. Click **Save**.
4. Use the context switcher to repeat these steps for each site.

KCCP supports value-added tax (VAT) through [Avalara](/pages/avalara-application) or [Vertex](/pages/vertex-application) integrations, which you can also implement for any additional tax behavior you may require.
