I then set up another tax category for Austria with the Austrian rate and the tax zone set to "Austria". Now a test user with a German address sees the German tax during checkout. Another test user with an Austrian address sees **no tax** at all. The product these test users are trying to buy is set to the default tax rate. What do I have to do that users from other countries (zones) see their respective rates? When will / should HikaShop switch over from showing a (default) German tax rate to showing an Austrian one?
