About GST On Reverse Charge Calculator

Under reverse charge the recipient rather than the supplier pays the tax, depositing it in cash and then claiming credit if the input is eligible. Where credit is available the net cost is unchanged, but the cash must still be funded.

Formula

Reverse charge

Tax = value × rate, deposited in cash; net cost = value + tax - eligible credit

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does reverse charge exist?

It secures collection where suppliers are unregistered, overseas or hard to police.

Can the credit be used to pay the reverse charge itself?

No. Reverse charge tax must be paid in cash; credit can only be used afterwards against other liabilities.
