# PUT /{merchantId}/accounttax/{accountId}

`PUT /{merchantId}/accounttax/{accountId}`

Updates the tax settings of the account. Any fields that are not provided are deleted from the resource.

## Path parameters

- `merchantId` string, required
- `accountId` string, required

## Request body

- AccountTax — The tax settings of a merchant account. All methods require the admin role.
  - `accountId` string, uint64 — Required. The ID of the account to which these account tax settings belong.
  - `rules` AccountTaxTaxRule[] — Tax rules. Updating the tax rules will enable "US" taxes (not reversible). Defining no rules is equivalent to not charging tax at all.

    - `country` string — Country code in which tax is applicable.
    - `locationId` string, uint64 — Required. State (or province) is which the tax is applicable, described by its location ID (also called criteria ID).
    - `shippingTaxed` boolean — If true, shipping charges are also taxed.
    - `useGlobalRate` boolean — Whether the tax rate is taken from a global tax table or specified explicitly.
  - `kind` string — Identifies what kind of resource this is. Value: the fixed string "`content#accountTax`".
