This method creates or updates a sales tax table entry for a jurisdiction.

Currently, only Canada, India, and the US support separate tax jurisdictions. If you sell into any of these countries, you can set up tax tables for any of the country's jurisdictions. Retrieve valid jurisdiction IDs using <b>getSalesTaxJurisdictions</b> in the Metadata API. <br/><br/>For details on using this call, see <a href="/api-docs/sell/static/seller-accounts/tax-tables.html">Establishing sales-tax tables</a>. <br/><br/><span class="tablenote"><b>Important!</b> In the US, eBay now 'collects and remits' sales tax for every US state except for Missouri (and a few US territories), so sellers can no longer configure sales tax rates for any states except Missouri.
