I only want to charge sales tax for Florida. I found the instructions on here, used the default tax category, set a Florida rate of 7% set the zone to USA->Florida.

When the product displays it shows the product price PLUS the sales tax (I DONT WANT THAT) and when you go to checkout it adds the sales tax on again which is stupid.

How do I fix this?

Hi,

Prices are displayed with taxes by default as that's how it should be in European countries. But if that's not what you want, simply turn off the "show taxed prices" option of the HikaShop configuration.

HikaShop doesn't add the tax twice. I've never seen that. Please provide screenshots of the issue so that we can see the problem.

Definitely adding it twice... turning off 'show taxed prices' fixes the problem. See screenshot.

I don't see the sale tax added twice on your screenshot.
The product price with tax is 21.35.
Then, you add the shipping, and you get 24.30
Which the total you see.
The tax line before the final total is only displayed for information and it not added up.
Otherwise, the total would be 25.70
If that's confusing, I would recommend to turn off the "show taxed prices" setting of the HikaShop configuration in order to see the product prices and the sub total amount without taxes.
