Yes, as you have found, the $Tag object is not available from within your
payment module.

As you don't need the formatting, perhaps this will be slightly better
for you:

    my $tax_charge = Vend::Interpolate::salestax();

Also, check the $cart argument to &tag_salestax and &salestax as you
are not using it correctly.  You should be using the cart name, such
as 'main', rather than either of $Vend::Items or $Carts->{main}.
If this argument is left undefined, it will default to your current
cart, which is ususlly 'main' anyway.
