Although the Amazon specifications still show a requirement that tax be included on a line item basis for 810 EDI invoices, Amazon Vendor Management has amended this as follows:

 At 11:42 AM 5/14/2008, they wrote:

Rich, 

 The tax can be sent at summary level and is no longer required by line.  

Thank you.

One of our publisher clients has also offered this information pertaining to paying GST tax on freight: try to arrange for Collect shipping so tax need not be paid. This way the EDI system need not be modified for this special requirement.
