In this article, you will learn how to set up your tax model in SabeeApp account
Before starting to use SabeeApp actively, it is mandatory to set your tax model. Tax settings are usually based on your country's law regulations, so if you are not sure about it, please discuss with your accountant.
When setting up your tax model for the first time, you will have the opportunity to explore all available variations and select the one that best suits your needs. If you ever need to make changes to your tax model in the future, please reach out to our Support Team for assistance.
We strongly recommend to set the same tax model here in Sabee as you have in all other sales channels to avoid any price discrepancies.
Possible tax models:
M01: GROSS - (VAT+CITY TAX)
M02: GROSS - VAT - CITY TAX
M03: GROSS - CITY TAX - VAT
M04: (GROSS - VAT) (GROSS - CITY TAX)
M05: NET + (VAT + CITY TAX)
M06: NET + CITY TAX + VAT
M07: NET + VAT + CITY TAX
M08: GROSS - VAT
M09: NET + VAT

This means, that new tax model or changes will apply for those bookings, that are already in the system and arrival date is in the future (starting from the tomorrow's day). It will influence all new incoming bookings by applying your newly saved settings.
II. If you want your Tax settings to affect only your future reservations, then click on the Update and don't apply for existing reservations button. In this case, tax settings or changes will apply for bookings, coming in the system from the moment once changes are saved.
You can only modify your tax settings every two hours. If you have decided to change the tax settings and did something wrong, please make sure to wait 2 hours from the last change to be able to edit the settings again.
