Goods and Services Taxes
GST in Australia came into effect in July 2000. The current GST rate is set at 10%. GST is included in most goods and services you purchase.
GST free items are usually essential supermarket products and came about via concessions and negotiations to poorer people not being to afford the 10% increase in basic living expenses.
The Australian Taxation office (Tax office) set and administer the rules on how you can charge GST in your business.
You can also easily calculate GST by dividing the purchase price by 11. Example: $100/11 = $9.09.
