Shopping Sales Tax Calculator
Add or Remove Sales Tax
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
At home, quickly add or remove sales tax from a price. Traveling? See whether tax is included or added at checkout, with guidance for 94 countries.
Fully free to use — no subscriptions or hidden costs.
Sales Tax Calculator makes it easy to see exactly what tax does to a price — whether sales tax is added at checkout or already included.
Enter any price and instantly see both calculations:
• How much tax is added
• What you will pay after tax
• How much tax is already included
• The price before tax
SEE BOTH ANSWERS AT ONCE
There is no need to choose between adding or removing tax first. Enter one price and the app shows both results instantly, making it quick and easy to understand the difference.
VISUAL TAX TABLE
Want to check several prices without entering each one?
Use the visual Tax Table to scan common prices at a glance. Choose a price range, switch between adding and removing tax, and immediately see the tax amount and final price.
SHOPPING TAX AROUND THE WORLD
Choose from 94 countries and see local shopping-tax terminology and reference rates.
Depending on the country, the app supports terms including:
• Sales tax
• VAT
• GST
• Consumption tax
• Other local shopping taxes
Country-specific guidance helps explain:
• The standard or typical tax rate
• Whether tax is normally included in displayed prices
• How food and essential items may be treated
• Important state, provincial, local, and regional differences
• When tax may be added at checkout
CUSTOM TAX RATES
Select one of the common rates for your chosen country or enter your own percentage when a different state, local, or product-specific rate applies.
USEFUL IN THE U.S. AND ABROAD
In the United States, there is no single national sales tax rate. Rates can vary by state and locality, and sales tax is commonly added at checkout.
When traveling abroad, tax may instead be included in the displayed price. The built-in country guide gives you a quick explanation before you buy.
TIPPING GUIDANCE INCLUDED
Traveling? The app also includes country-specific tipping guidance, helping you understand both shopping taxes and local tipping customs.
