How can I set up different taxes for different counties in my state?

I just received my state tax permit. The person I spoke with on the phone told me that if I were going to sell online in Arkansas, I need to collect each counties tax. (They are all different percentages.) How do I set this up in the Square Website?

I have read the article about how to add a tax. Would I just collect our city's tax, and hope it's enough to cover all the other counties?

She also told me that if I sell out of state online, I would not need to collect a tax. Will Square online configure in this way?

Thanks for the advice!

For example.... If someone lives in Drew County, I collect the taxes for Drew County. If someone lives in Bradley County, I collect the taxes for Bradley County..... I just want to make sure I don't mess up the government's money. (:

Hey @CurbsideCafe! If you're using the automatic tax calculator, it will already factor in local taxes based on the zip code of the purchaser. That way you don't have to think twice about taxes calculating the way they should. 😄
