As long as taxes are defined by the GEO where the resident lives. If you have 
no information about that point how may you charge
taxes ?

For example if I work on a contract in France I will have to apply taxes for my 
services in the invoice. But if I work on a contract
outside France no taxes are applied.

Shipping is not the way because the buyer is not necessarily the one who 
receive the item. But as long as they pay I think that you
are able to know where they reside, not sure how to do that in each cases 
though...
