Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: What is the difference between adding and removing tax? A: You should use “Add Tax” when you have a price before tax and want to find the final cost. On the other hand, use “Remove Tax” when you have a final price that already includes tax and you need to find out the original price and how much tax was paid.

• Q: Can I use this calculator for taxes other than GST? A: Yes, absolutely. Although we use “GST” as a common example, you can use this tool to calculate any percentage-based tax, such as VAT or sales tax. Simply enter the correct tax rate for your needs.

• Q: Is the financial data I enter into this calculator saved? A: No. We value your privacy. In fact, all calculations happen directly in your browser, which means the amounts you enter are never sent to or stored on our servers
