China VAT rates 2026 and calculator

At 13%, a price of CN¥1,000.00 before VAT becomes CN¥1,130.00, of which CN¥130.00 is VAT.

The other way round, CN¥1,000.00 including VAT is CN¥884.96 before it — divide by 1.13 rather than taking 13% off, which is the usual mistake.

5 of the 14 Asia-Pacific countries on this site charge more.

Under WooCommerce → Settings → Tax → Standard rates, add a row with the country code CN and a rate of 13, leaving the state and postcode empty. Reduced rates go in their own tax class, each with a CN row, and the products that qualify are assigned to it.

If one product you sell is really two things taxed at different rates — a meal deal with food and drink in it, a gift box with a book — a single tax class cannot be right for it. SplitVAT divides that product's price across the tax classes you already have, so the order shows each part at its own rate. It is our plugin, and you only need it if your products are like that.

Rates checked on 30 October 2026. Two published rate tables were compared, and every rate they disagreed on — or that had changed since either was written — was checked against the tax authority or a tax adviser’s published guidance. Rates and the goods they apply to change; confirm with the national tax authority before you file.
