And your accountant is most certainly right but it is impossible to confirm without more information.
At best, if you are using Stripe Tax, Stripe will add taxes where YOU tell them to add taxes. So, if you haven't told Stripe to compute VAT on EU transactions, Stripe Tax will just show 0%.
When it comes to Sales Tax, Stripe can help you track the economic nexus per state, so you will know when you need to start adding sales tax to your invoices.
Anyway, if you are selling globally, Stripe is absolutely not the right tool, unless you have an army of tax accountants working for you. A Merchant of Record (MoR) costs more, but it saves you a ton of headaches in the long run!
