This is because the tax is based on the shipping origin, not the customer’s location.
Alameda tax: Our U.S. office and warehouse are located in Alameda. Even if you are not based in this area, a 1.25% local distribution tax is applied to orders shipped from this location.
Grand Prairie City tax: Our FBD Texas warehouse is located in Grand Prairie City. Shipments from this warehouse are also subject to a 1.25% local distribution tax.
These charges are applied according to local tax regulations tied to the fulfillment location.
