Show Price without VAT 

The VAT switcher is prominently displayed on all product listing and product detail pages. It is positioned within the header.

When a user selects “Show prices without VAT”, all product prices are dynamically updated to exclude applicable VAT.

VAT rates are calculated based on the customer’s shipping address or the store’s default tax zone. Displayed prices accurately reflect tax inclusion or exclusion in accordance with Magento’s tax configuration settings.

From the backend, administrators can fully manage VAT switcher behavior, including:

  • Enabling or disabling the VAT switcher

  • Setting the default display mode (inclusive or exclusive) per store view

  • Defining which customer groups have access to the switcher
