# Can I specify a latitude and longitude instead of a street address?

Yes. Some sites can only be pinpointed by geolocation. In these situations, AvaTax supports specifying a latitude and longitude.

If you specify a longitude and latitude along with a street address's information, AvaTax will use the latitude and longitude and discard all other address elements.

If you provide only either latitude or longitude, AvaTax will discard it and rely on the street address.
