How do they know what to charge you? There is some billing system that has all the taxes and fees in it to apply to your bill and there are 3rd parties SaaS companies that solve taxes for business like Avalara that will give a break down of all the taxes it applied to a given address.

They provide you with a form to check if your address is supported which is linked to one system that do the check. I think it is possible to link the two systems together to give you the price for your particular address. I don't think taxes and fees here has to do with anything other than your physical address (They are not the IRS after all)
