Reduced rates, zero rates and exemptions

GST is charged at the standard 15% rate on most supplies. Some supplies are zero-rated, which means GST is charged at 0% but the seller can still claim GST on its costs. The examples given by Inland Revenue are exported goods, sales of a going concern, and certain sales of land where set criteria are met. Zero-rated sales are included in total sales and shown separately in Box 6 of the GST return.

Exempt supplies are different: no GST is charged, they are left out of the GST return, and GST on costs linked to them cannot be claimed. Examples are financial services such as loan interest and bank fees, and donated goods and services sold by not-for-profit organisations.

How to calculate GST in New Zealand

Add: tax = net × 0.15; gross = net × 1.15.

Remove: net = gross ÷ 1.15; tax = gross − net.
