GST Calculator: Add and subtract GST
Our GST calculator helps you quickly and efficiently calculate goods and services tax (GST). Use the calculator to add or subtract GST from the price of a product.
Calculate your GST Amount
The goods and services tax (GST), also known as value-added tax (VAT), is an integral part of purchases in Australia. Our GST Calculator streamlines the process of finding the product price before or after GST inclusion.
Use our GST Calculator to find the price of a product excluding GST or add GST to the price of a product:
The price already includes GST:
| Price including GST | Price excluding GST | GST | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taxable good or service | 90,00 | 10,00 |
The provided price is exclusive of GST:
| Price excluding GST | Price including GST | GST | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taxable good or service | 110,00 | 10,00 |
Assumptions
If you are registered for the goods and services tax (GST) in Australia, the products and services you offer are typically subject to taxation, unless they fall under the categories of GST-free or input-taxed.
This tool is designed to assist you specifically when engaging in taxable sales, meaning sales that include a 10 percent GST component in the price.
For a sale to be considered taxable, it must meet the following criteria:
- The sale must be for payment of some kind.
- The sale must be made in the course of operating a business.
For a more comprehensive understanding of how the goods and services tax (GST) operates, you can refer to the Australian Taxation Office website.
What is GST?
GST, or goods and services tax, is a value-added tax applicable to most goods and services sold or consumed in Australia. Businesses registered for GST must incorporate the tax in their sales prices, collect it from customers, and remit it to the government.
What is the percentage of GST in Australia?
The GST rate in Australia is 10 percent, implemented on most goods and services, except for exemptions such as basic foods, certain medical and healthcare services, and specific educational courses. This tax was introduced on 1 July 2000.
Calculating GST
To calculate the goods and services tax (GST), you can use the following methods:
Work out the price including GST
If you want to add GST to the existing price of a product or service, simply multiply the amount by 0.1 (or 10 percent). This gives you the amount to add on. Alternatively, if you want the total price, simply multiply the original price by 1.1 (110 percent).
Exclude GST from total amount
To work out how much GST is included in a total price, divide the price by 11. If you want the total price before GST was added, divide by 1.1.
