Hey @dubbochristmass, welcome to the Community! 👋

If you've added your prices inclusive of GST, and you still have GST enabled in your Tax settings, then Square will automatically calculate the tax paid on your customer's receipt.

Check out our helpful GST/Tax article on the Square Support Centre. Let me know if I can help any further!

Our prices are entered in the system inclusive of GST. How do we show GST as a separate line item without double charging customers or changing prices on the thousands of items in the system?

Hey there @TannumGarden,

Thanks for reaching out with your question!

Currently, you have the option to either include or exclude your tax in your item price. If you are including your tax in the item price, then this won't be shown on your customer's receipts as a separate line item. Only you will be able to view the calculated GST from your end for reporting purposes, either by searching the individual transaction or generating reports.

If you want to swap this so that it does show on your customers' receipts as a separate line item, excluding the tax from your item price, is the only option here. You can, however, elect to apply your tax (either included or excluded) to select items or all items as required. You'll find this option on the Edit Tax page, see the below screenshots for reference.

Let me know if this helps to answer your question!
