How to calculate GST in Australia
Goods and services tax (GST) in Australia is 10%. To add GST to a price, multiply by 1.1: $100 plus GST is $110. To remove GST from a GST-inclusive price, divide by 1.1, which means the GST is one eleventh of the total: $110 includes $10 of GST and a price of $100 before GST. This calculator does both and shows the GST amount.
Examples
| Price excluding GST | GST (10%) | Price including GST |
|---|---|---|
| A$50 | A$5 | A$55 |
| A$100 | A$10 | A$110 |
| A$250 | A$25 | A$275 |
| A$1,000 | A$100 | A$1,100 |
| A$5,000 | A$500 | A$5,500 |
- Some items are GST-free, such as many basic foods and some health and education services; those have no GST to add or remove.
- Businesses registered for GST charge it on taxable sales and may claim credits for GST paid on business purchases. Check the ATO or your accountant for your situation.

Frequently asked questions
How do I add GST to a price?
Multiply the price by 1.1. For example $200 plus GST is $220, of which $20 is GST.
How do I remove GST from a price?
Divide the GST-inclusive price by 1.1, or divide by 11 to get the GST amount. $220 including GST is $200 before GST, with $20 of GST.
What is the GST rate in Australia?
10% on most goods and services.
Why divide by 11 and not take 10%?
Because the GST-inclusive price already contains the GST. Ten percent of the total would overstate it; one eleventh gives the exact GST.
Is everything subject to GST?
No. Some supplies are GST-free or input-taxed, such as certain basic foods and health or education services.
