@RIGO_TZ, @Joe91 is correct. You should not have defined your tax code as you did. It is possible you are operating under a flat rate scheme in your country, but not with a flat rate percentage the same as the tax percentage. There would be no point. Read about flat rate schemes in the Guide @Joe91 linked.
