Note

This is a copy/paste of #138 which got merged to main for some reason, this is take two for the 3.x branch.

After checking the changes in #137 I've noticed that Campione d'Italia became part of the EU customs territory on 1 Jan 2020.

That means two relevant changes:

Until 2020, mail could be sent to Campione using either a Swiss postal code (CH-6911) or an Italian one (I-22061) via Switzerland or Italy, but the Swiss postal code ceased to be valid, with mail instead being charged at the same international rate as that between Switzerland and Italy.

…n 2020

Campione d’Italia formally became part of the EU customs territory on 1 January 2020. VAT will apply, but the tax rate will remain that of Switzerland. Also, the Swiss postal code ceased to be valid.

Plase hold up merging this. When the original PR was created in 2020 the VAT rate was 7.7% but this page says Campione d'Italia has 8% VAT now. Swiss VAT rate , which the Campione VAT rate originally followed, is now 8.1 % (#169). I'll try to find out whether that is or even what's correct.

It seems that the tax is not VAT as such, but rather "a local consumption tax [...] which is in line with Swiss VAT".

"territories excluded from the application of the VAT."

Unfortunately, I can't confirm the 8% rate, no other sources than that page. And it even seems that the tax in that region is actually not VAT as such, but rather some "local consumption tax":

"confirmes the introduction of a local consumption tax in Campione d'Italia which is in line with Swiss VAT," https://www.admin.ch/gov/en/start/documentation/media-releases.msg-id-77668.html

"territories excluded from the application of the VAT." (not sure if the page is relevant though, talks about MOSS)

I've reverted the rate to 0 in a separate commit, feel free to drop it if you feel like.
