# Added new field `tax_exempt` on the `Order` resource for the REST Admin API

As of REST Admin API `2023-07`, we've added the `tax_exempt` field to the `Order` resource. You can use this field to determine whether or not an order was exempt from taxes.

Orders can be exempt from taxes if the "Charge taxes" option was disabled during the creation of a Draft Order, or if the order was created for a customer with the "Collect tax" option disabled.

*Note that any products that are tax exempt in an order are not considered when calculating the `tax_exempt` field .*

Learn more about the `tax_exempt` field on [Shopify.dev](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-rest/2023-07/resources/order).
