Sales Tax (8%)$16.00

Add sales tax to a price, or work out the tax already included in a total. Works for any tax label — Sales Tax, VAT, GST, HST — with a manual rate you control.

Formula

  • Add (exclusive): Tax = Amount × Rate%, Total = Amount + Tax
  • Remove (inclusive): Net = Total ÷ (1 + Rate%), Tax = Total − Net

Example

On $200 at 8% exclusive tax, the tax is $16 and the total is $216. If $216 already includes 8%, the net is $200.

Frequently asked questions

Does this know my local tax rate?

No — you enter the rate manually. Tax rates vary by country, state and product type, so always confirm the correct rate with an official source.

What is inclusive vs exclusive tax?

Exclusive tax is added on top of the price; inclusive tax is already contained in the displayed price and is backed out to show the net amount.

Tax rates and rules differ by jurisdiction and product. This tool only formats the maths for a rate you provide and is not tax advice.
