You created additional zones for the countries with the type "tax" and used those new zones in your european zone and tax rules. That's why it didn't work. The european zone already has all the european countries in it. You don't have to change to change it or create new zones. Because of that hikashop wasn't able to link the address country ( for netherlands it's the zone 150 ) with the one in your tax rules (with the id 4506).

Hi Nicolas, Thank you for having a look at my problem. However, I am ashamed... I still don't understand this philosophy. The first item Default address type, I understand. The second one, tax zones, I now understand that the id of the countries should be the same in Countries as in Taxes as in Payment zones. When I look at the tax zone European Union and its subzones, I see now three countries (I added United Kongdom) and a lot of empty lines with just the trash can on those lines. What are these empty lines? Can or should I delete them?

It seems that the list with empty lines grows when I try to delete those lines. I added all 27 countries in the European Union, let's see if this works and then I will create the WORLD zone with all other countries..
