Monite maintains a catalog of VAT and sales tax rates for [select countries](https://docs.monite.com/accounts-receivable/vat-rates#supported-countries). To query the applicable VAT/tax rates for an invoice or quote, use: `GET /vat_rates?counterpart_id=<...>&entity_vat_id_id=<...>` Or if the entity does not have a VAT ID: `GET /vat_rates?counterpart_id=<...>` **Note:** Entities from countries [not on the list](https://docs.monite.com/accounts-receivable/vat-rates#supported-countries) should not use this endpoint. Instead, those entities can either create custom VAT/tax rates or use the invoice field `line_items[].tax_rate_value` to specify the VAT/tax rates directly.
