How to use the tax calculator
"What's the tax-included price of ¥1,000 net?" "What's the net price behind a receipt total?" It is easy to get the direction wrong. This tool works both ways — net to tax-inclusive and back — and also shows the tax amount.
How to use it
Pick the direction, then enter the amount and rate. Choose 10% (standard), 8% (reduced) or a custom rate. If the rate ever changes, just type it into "Custom" and keep using the tool.
About the reduced rate
In Japan, food and drink (excluding alcohol and dining out) and subscription newspapers use the reduced 8% rate. The same shopping trip can mix rates by item, so check the receipt. Since the scope can change, confirm details with official sources such as the National Tax Agency.
