I am trying to change Tax to say VAT across the site. I have tried to change the en_US.csv file located in i18n in my theme, but with no result. Is this changed on database level, and if so, where?

You are in the right place, but presumably you need to use:
en_GB.csv
if your store is in the UK.

Magento ver. 2.1.9
go to here: / vendor / magento / module-tax / view / frontend / layout / checkout_cart_index.xml
find and replace Tax to VAT
and
/ vendor / magento / module-tax / view / frontend / layout / checkout_index_index.xml

This should be the accepted answer. Translation files should just be used for translation management, not used a means of changing the semantic meaning of a label.– jschrabCommented Mar 15, 2018 at 19:44

1Changes to the module-tax file will just be overwritten the next time you update, won't they? Doesn't seem to be a good method to me. Commented Jul 10, 2019 at 0:36

You shouldnt change the core of magento to do a translation Commented Mar 10, 2022 at 16:59
Perfect Thank you
For Australian GST, file name needs to be added en_AU.csv
add line "Tax", "GST"
/public_html/vendor/magento/module-tax/i18n
in folder create file en_GB.csv and write
Tax VAT
