New Zealand FAQs

What is the GST rate in New Zealand?

The standard New Zealand GST rate is 15%, which has been in effect since 1 October 2010. It applies to most goods and services sold in New Zealand. For example, an item priced at NZ$100 before GST costs NZ$115 including GST.

How do I calculate GST on a price in New Zealand?

To add GST, multiply by 1.15. For example, NZ$500 plus GST is $575. To find the GST included in a price, divide by 1.15 and subtract from the total. A NZ$575 GST-inclusive price contains $75 in GST.

When must a business register for GST in New Zealand?

Registration is compulsory when your annual turnover exceeds NZ$60,000 or is expected to within the next 12 months. Businesses earning under $60,000 can register voluntarily, which allows them to claim GST back on business expenses.

What is the difference between zero-rated and exempt supplies?

Zero-rated supplies (0% GST) include exports, financial services, and the sale of a going concern. You can still claim input tax credits. Exempt supplies such as donated goods and residential rent have no GST charged, and you cannot claim input credits on related expenses.

How often do I file GST returns in New Zealand?

Most businesses file GST returns every two months (six returns per year). If turnover exceeds NZ$24 million, monthly filing is required. Small businesses under NZ$500,000 turnover can apply to file six-monthly returns instead.

Can tourists get a GST refund in New Zealand?

No. Unlike Australia (TRS) and many European countries, New Zealand does not offer GST refunds for tourists on purchases made in the country. The 15% GST is the final price visitors pay.

How does NZ GST compare to Australia GST?

NZ GST is 15% versus Australia GST at 10%. NZ has fewer exemptions than Australia. Both countries exempt basic financial services and exports. Australia exempts most fresh food from GST, while NZ applies GST to nearly all food except some unprocessed items sold by primary producers.
