# Adding Tax Rates

You add tax rates from the **Billing and Accounting** page on the Administrator Panel. 
:::(Warning) (Using our [Xero](/v3/docs/xero){target="_blank"} or [Quickbooks Online](/v3/docs/quickbooks-online){target="_blank"} integration?)
Make sure the tax rates you create in Nexudus are an exact match (name and rate) with the tax rates defined in your accounting system. 

*For example, if your main tax rate in **Xero** is named **VAT** with a **20%** rate, your tax rate in Nexudus must be named **VAT** be set at **20%** for your invoice transfers to work.*
