GST rates in New Zealand
| 15% | standard |
Selling to customers in New Zealand from abroad
A foreign business registers once its sales to New Zealand consumers pass NZ$60,000 in twelve months. For goods of NZ$1,000 or less, the seller charges GST at checkout.
Worked example
At 15%, a price of NZ$100.00 before GST becomes NZ$115.00, of which NZ$15.00 is GST.
The other way round, NZ$100.00 including GST is NZ$86.96 before it — divide by 1.15 rather than taking 15% off, which is the usual mistake.

Where these rates come from
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.
