# Company & Tax Settings

## Company Information

* **Address Line 2:** Additional address details (e.g., suite, floor) (optional).

### Invoice Numbering

From this page you can also customise how invoice numbers are generated — including the prefix that appears at the start (e.g. change `INV` to your company abbreviation) and the starting sequence number.

Click the **Invoice Numbering** button in the top-right corner of this page to open those settings.

See [Invoice Numbering](/easy-space-docs/space-settings/invoice-numbering.md) for full details.

## Tax Rates

Manage tax rates that can be applied to invoices and automatically added to purchases.

### Existing Rates

* Lists all the tax rates you have configured for your space.
* Displays the **Name**, **Rate (%)**, and optional **Description** for each.
* A **"Default"** badge indicates the rate currently applied automatically to applicable charges.

### Managing Default Tax Rate

**⚠️ Important:** The default tax rate is automatically added during checkout for member memberships and resource purchases. It does not apply to manually created invoices where you select taxes per line item.

* **Make Default:** Click this button next to a rate to designate it as the default tax ra
  * Only one rate can be the default at a time. Setting a new default will remove the default status from any previously selected rate.
* **Unset Default:** If a rate is currently the default, click this button to remove its default status.
  * If no default rate is set, taxes will **not** be automatically applied to memberships or resource purchases.

### Deleting a Tax Rate

* Click the **trash icon** next to a rate to remove it.
* **Note:** You cannot delete a tax rate if it is currently set as the **Default** and other tax rates exist. You must first set another rate as the default or unset the current default before deleting it. If it's the only tax rate, you can delete it even if it's marked as default.

### Add New Rate

* **Name:** A unique name for the tax rate (e.g., "VAT", "GST").
* **Rate (%):** The tax percentage (e.g., enter `20` for 20%). The rate must be between 0 and 100.
* **Description (Optional):** A brief note about the tax rate (e.g., "Standard Value Added Tax").

Click **"Add Rate"** to create the new tax rate. It will then appear in the "Existing Rates" list.

### Tax-exempt members

The default tax rate applies to most members at checkout and on **recurring membership renewals**. Some members should not be charged tax (for example, B2B customers with a valid VAT registration in another country).

To exempt a specific member:

1. Open **Members** → select the member → **Edit Member**.
2. In **Billing & tax**, enter **Company name** and **Tax ID** if you want them on invoices.
3. Check **Tax exempt — do not charge tax on purchases**.

That member's future purchases and **automatic monthly renewals** will skip the default rate. See [View and Edit Individual Members](/easy-space-docs/members-and-memberships/view-and-edit-individual-members.md#billing--tax) for details and limits (already-issued invoices are not changed retroactively).
