COMMUNICATION ERROR WITH EXTERNAL TAXATION SYSTEM - VERTEX_MS0018

When I copied US company code 3000 to my org using USD as currency code with a a view to simulate US scenarios it threw an error as under.

The error occurred when I was trying to fill in the address tab after copying the company code.

Check the company code settings. You might have given the country key as IN instead US.
