What is VAT?

Value-added tax is the consumption tax imposed on raw materials or products of every stage of production in which value is added to it. Eventually, the consumer bears it, but its collection is made by a business.

VAT vs Sales Tax

Value addition at each stage of supply attracts VAT, whereas Sales Tax is levied only at the time of final sale to the consumer. VAT can be collected at each stage of a tax.

What is GST?

Value Added Tax is structured as GST or Goods and Services Tax for countries like India and Australia. The GST works just like VAT, wherein imposition occurs in successive stages of production on goods and services.

VAT in Other Countries

Also, the rates and rules for VAT are different in every country. Some of the countries call it Sales Tax or GST. Always check your local regulations for an accurate calculation.
