Does Astah automatically apply regional B2B vs. B2C sales tax rates?

No, our online store does not automatically differentiate between B2B (Business-to-Business) and B2C (Business-to-Consumer) tax exemptions or reduced rates for specific state or regional jurisdictions, specialized B2B tax rates (such as a 3% rate instead of a standard 6%) will not automatically apply at regular checkout.

Solution: Request a Custom Payment Link

If your state or region mandates a reduced tax rate for B2B software purchases, our team can manually generate a custom payment link reflecting the correct rate prior to purchase.

Steps to Apply:

Before placing your order on the online store, please submit a request to the Astah Sales Team with the following information:

1. The product and quantity you intend to purchase: (e.g., Astah Professional Floating License for 10 seats)
2. Usage Type: Is your purchase for business use or personal use?
3. Purchaser Entity: Is the purchaser an individual or a registered business?
4. Estimated Tax Rate: Your region's applicable tax rate for this purchase (if known)

Once our team reviews your information, we will create and email you a custom payment link with the correct tax rate applied for your region.
