Tax item data feed - AWS Marketplace

Tax item data feed

This data feed provides information about tax calculations for a customer invoice.

There can be multiple line items (line_item_id) for a given product (product_id) of a given customer invoice (invoice_id), one or more for each tax jurisdiction. This happens, for example, with usage-based bills for customers who are using different AWS Region rules by different AWS entities (say, the US and Ireland). To learn more about where AWS collects sales tax, VAT, or GST on your sales and remits such taxes to the local tax authorities, in the name of AWS, Inc., see Amazon Web Service Tax Help.

The tax item data feed is refreshed every 24 hours, so new data is available daily.

Tax item data is immutable.

The following table explains the names and descriptions of the data feed's columns. For information about data history columns, see Historization of the data.

Column name Description
tax_item_id A unique identifier for a tax item record.
invoice_id The AWS invoice ID. You can use this value with the value of product_id to find related tax billing events.
line_item_id A unique identifier for a customer bill line item. Refund transactions have the same line item ID as their forward tax transactions.
customer_bill_id The unique identifier of the customer bill. Buyers can share this identifier with the seller to help identify and resolve tax calculation questions.
tax_liable_party

Either AWS or Seller. If the seller is the tax liable party, taxes are collected. If AWS is the tax liable party, sales tax is collected and remitted by AWS. For more information, see AWS Marketplace Sellers & Tax Collection.

If no taxes are collected, there is no value shown here. The seller needs to determine whether some taxes were collected for each invoice, as the seller is liable for tax collection.

transaction_type_code
