# Product Tax Codes

Stripe Tax uses product tax codes to determine a product's tax rate.

Note: Log in or sign up for Stripe to enable Stripe Tax.

Stripe Tax uses product tax codes (PTCs) to associate products with tax rates. For example, a jurisdiction can charge one tax rate for products in the Clothing & Footwear category and a different tax rate for products in the School Uniforms category.

You can either:

*   Set a preset product tax code in your tax settings.
*   Set a product tax code for each of your products individually.

Stripe Tax uses the preset product tax code for products that don’t have a PTC set directly.

## All Tax Codes

The following table describes the available product tax codes. If a product doesn’t fit any of the specific codes, use one of the codes with “General” in its name.

You can also fetch this list of tax codes using the API.
