## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability taxpulse-vat-gst-intelligence-api-d19bb7d8
```

Example prompt: What's the VAT rate for digital services sold to customers in Germany, and do I need to register for OSS or IOSS as a UK-based seller?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs precise, jurisdiction-specific VAT or GST rates, registration thresholds, or OSS/IOSS compliance logic for ecommerce or digital services contexts. Prefer over generic tax APIs when indirect tax details (VAT/GST) are specifically needed rather than income or corporate tax. Best for ecommerce platforms, SaaS billing systems, or tax compliance agents operating across multiple global jurisdictions.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported jurisdiction returns an error or empty result
- Missing required country parameter causes a 400 bad request
- Rate-limiting or payment failure returns a 402 or 429 response
- Outdated rates if the jurisdiction recently changed its rules and data hasn't refreshed
- Ambiguous product category may return generic rather than reduced/zero rates
