How to Create a WooCommerce Tax Exempt Coupon?
Buyers will be able to use those coupons to exclude taxes from their order totals. As soon as buyers apply the coupon code, taxes will automatically be deducted from the total cart order amount.

In the ‘Coupon Code’ field, add a name for your coupon code. This is for internal purposes only, which won’t be visible on the front end. I’m naming it ‘Tax Exempt Coupon.’
3. Select ‘Discount Type’ to ‘Fixed Cart Discount’
Select the 'Discount Type' from the given options to the 'Fixed Cart Discount.' We will choose this because we will not offer a percentage discount.
4. Click on the Publish Button
Click on the ‘Publish’ button to publish the new coupon code. Don’t tell your buyers about this code now because it won’t work currently, as we want it to.
Look for the ‘Woosuite’ option in the right sidebar of your WordPress toolbar. Then, click on the ‘Tax Exemption Rules’ option.
In the WordPress Admin Dashboard: Navigate to the Woosuite Submenu > Click on the Tax-Exemption Rules option.

3. Select ‘Coupons’ from the Given Options
Under the ‘Conditions’ section, select ‘Coupons’ from the given options. So, select ‘Coupons.’
