GST formulas and examples
Use these formulas to check the amount added to a tax-free price or removed from a tax-included total.
Add tax
Total = tax-free price x (1 + rate / 100)
Remove tax
Tax-free price = tax-included total / (1 + rate / 100)
Tax amount
Tax = tax-free price x rate / 100
Quick example
Starting from $100, a 12.5% rate gives $12.5 in tax and $112.5 total.
Starting from $112.5, the tax-free amount is $100 and the tax is $12.5.
Belize General Sales Tax: 12.5% and zero-rated supplies
Belize calls the tax General Sales Tax (GST). The Belize Tax Service states that a standard-rated taxable supply or import is charged at 12.5%, while supplies or imports covered by the zero-rating schedules are charged at 0%. GST was introduced on 1 July 2006; the 12.5% rate is reflected in the current law after the 2010 amendment.
Exports can qualify for the zero rate, but the supplier must satisfy the legal conditions and retain supporting evidence.
Belize dollar example and import charges
For a standard-rated value of BZ$1,000 before GST, the tax is BZ$125 and the total is BZ$1,125. That is the arithmetic performed when 12.5% is selected.
For imports, Belize Customs calculates GST after adding applicable import duty, revenue replacement duty, excise and environmental tax to the customs value. This calculator does not build that customs base or decide zero-rating, exemption, registration or input credits. The result is an orientative estimate, not personalised tax advice.
