# Personal Tax Rates

## What are Personal Tax Rates?
Personal tax rates are a custom tax rate that you define for a specific customer. The personal tax rate applies to all purchases made by the customer, instead of the default tax rate when invoiced items don't have an assigned tax rate.
:::(Warning) (Personal tax rates only override the default tax rate.)
Items with an assigned [custom tax rate](/v3/docs/tax-rates){target="_blank"} will always be charged based on their assigned rate.
::: 

## Why Use Personal Tax Rates
Personal tax rates are a great solution when only a couple of your customers require a different default tax rate that wouldn't apply to the rest of your customer base.

## Personal Tax Rates & Teams with Merged Invoicing
If a team has a merged billing enabled and the team's paying customer has a personal tax rate in their account, any item purchased by  team members that doesn't have an assigned tax rate will be charged using the team's paying customer personal tax rate.
