Some U.S. customers may see a charge at checkout labeled “State Tax Upon Shipment.”
This is a type of sales tax required by certain U.S. states when products are shipped within the United States.
Why am I being charged this?
Heritage Cookbook is a Canadian company and we work with a U.S.-based printing partner to produce and ship books within the United States.
Our printing partner is required by law to collect and remit sales tax in certain states when products are drop-shipped from one state to another. When this applies, the tax is calculated by the printer based on your state and local tax rules and added at checkout as:
Will everyone see this charge?
No.
Some U.S. states require this tax.
Others do not.
If your state does not require this type of tax, you will not see the charge at checkout.
Good to know
This fee is determined by state tax laws, not by Heritage Cookbook.
The amount varies based on your state and county.
The tax is calculated automatically at checkout.
If you have questions about how tax applies in your state, we’re happy to help clarify.
