<p>A client is asking if the order calculation can show a 20% tax calculation on the shipping price.</p>
<p>From looking through Commerce 3, it seems this isn't possible, eg Shipping prices are always assumed to be inclusive of tax?</p>

Hey @james-greig, have you found out something here? It does not make sense that shipping is without tax. We are having this problem too and we need a solution for this as well.

A client is asking if the order calculation can show a 20% tax calculation on the shipping price.

From looking through Commerce 3, it seems this isn't possible, eg Shipping prices are always assumed to be inclusive of tax?

We fixed this by doing three things...

1. On our tax rate, setting "Taxable Subject" to "Order total taxable price (Line item subtotal + Total discounts + Total shipping)"
2. Also on our tax rate, turning *on* the "Is this tax is already
   included in the taxable subject?" switch.
3. In our templates, wherever tax is displayed, changing from `{{getTotalTax}}` to `{{getTotalTaxIncluded}}` — eg to display the total tax (included) on a basket for both line items and shipping you'd want something like `{{ cart.getTotalTaxIncluded('tax')|commerceCurrency(cart.currency) }}`
