Add or remove sales tax from any price

This GST / sales tax calculator works out the tax amount and the final price for any tax rate. It works both ways: add tax to a price that does not include it, or find the original price from an amount that already includes tax.

Who uses it

  • Shop owners and freelancers preparing quotes and invoices.
  • Buyers checking that a bill has been calculated correctly.
  • Accountants and students doing quick tax checks.

The formulas

Adding tax: tax = price × rate ÷ 100, total = price + tax.
Removing tax: original price = total ÷ (1 + rate ÷ 100).

A common mistake is to remove tax by simply subtracting the percentage from the total — that gives the wrong answer. For example, 1,180 with 18% tax included means an original price of 1,000, not 967.60.

Tax rates differ by country, province and product, and they change from time to time, so always check the current official rate for your case.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between "add tax" and "remove tax" here?
"Add tax" takes a tax-exclusive amount and shows the total with tax added. "Remove tax" does the reverse — it takes a price that already includes tax and works out the original pre-tax amount and the tax portion.
Does this use a fixed regional tax rate?
No — you enter whatever percentage applies to your situation, so it works for GST, VAT, sales tax, or any other percentage-based tax regardless of country.
