Price Tax Switcher – Display Tax-Included or Tax-Excluded Prices in PrestaShop
Give your customers the freedom to view product prices in the format that suits their shopping or business requirements. Price Tax Switcher is a PrestaShop module that allows customers to switch between Tax Included (TTC) and Tax Excluded (HT) prices directly from your store's front office.
Whether you operate a B2C retail store, a B2B wholesale business, or a combination of both, this module makes your pricing easier to understand. Customers can change the displayed price with a simple switch, while the module uses PrestaShop's existing tax calculation system instead of requiring duplicate products or separate tax-specific prices.
One Store, Two Price Display Options
Different customers often expect to see prices differently. Retail shoppers generally want to know the final amount they will pay, including applicable taxes. Business buyers, wholesalers, and professional customers may prefer to compare net prices excluding tax.
Price Tax Switcher bridges this difference by providing a convenient front-office switch. Customers can choose how prices are displayed without needing to calculate the tax amount themselves.
🛒
Tax Included (TTC)
Display prices including applicable taxes. Ideal for retail customers who want to see the final tax-inclusive product price.
Example price
₹1,180
Including ₹180 tax
💼
Tax Excluded (HT)
Display prices before applicable taxes. Useful for business buyers, wholesalers, and professional customers comparing net prices.
Example price
₹1,000
Excluding ₹180 tax
Illustrative example using an assumed 18% tax rate. Actual prices and tax amounts depend on the tax rules configured in your PrestaShop store.
Why Does Your PrestaShop Store Need a Tax Price Switcher?
A single pricing presentation does not always work for every type of customer. A retail shopper and a wholesale buyer may visit the same product page but have completely different expectations about how prices should be displayed.
Consider these common challenges:
- Retail customers want the final price: They prefer seeing a tax-inclusive amount so they can understand the price they are expected to pay.
- Business customers compare net prices: B2B buyers often need to evaluate product costs before applicable taxes.
- Mixed stores serve different audiences: A store selling to both individuals and businesses needs a flexible pricing presentation.
- Manual tax calculations create confusion: Customers may need to calculate the tax themselves when only one price format is shown.
- Separate product prices are difficult to maintain: Creating duplicate products or manually maintaining tax-inclusive and tax-exclusive prices can complicate catalog management and create inconsistencies.
Price Tax Switcher solves this presentation problem. It gives customers a simple way to change between tax-inclusive and tax-exclusive price displays while using the existing PrestaShop tax calculation system. You can serve different customer expectations without maintaining duplicate products just to show different price formats.
How Does Price Tax Switcher Work?
The module adds a convenient tax display switcher to your PrestaShop storefront. Customers can select their preferred price format, and the displayed prices are updated according to the selected tax mode and your store's configured tax rules.

Key Features of Price Tax Switcher for PrestaShop
1. One-Click Tax-Included / Tax-Excluded Switching
Allow customers to change the displayed price format directly from the storefront. With a convenient switch between Tax Included (TTC) and Tax Excluded (HT), shoppers can view prices in the format they prefer without manually calculating the difference.
2. Dynamic Price Calculation Using PrestaShop Tax Rules
The module works with PrestaShop's existing tax calculation system to display the corresponding price. This helps keep the displayed amounts aligned with the tax rules already configured in your store.
For example, if a product has a net price of ₹1,000 and the applicable tax rate is 18%, the tax-inclusive price is ₹1,180. Customers can switch between these two price presentations instead of calculating the tax manually.
3. Designed for B2B and B2C Stores
Serve retail shoppers and professional buyers from the same PrestaShop store. Retail customers can view tax-inclusive prices, while business customers can switch to tax-exclusive prices when comparing products and evaluating net costs.
This makes the module particularly useful for wholesalers, distributors, manufacturers, suppliers, and stores with mixed retail and business audiences.
4. Consistent Price Presentation Across the Shopping Journey
Customers should not have to interpret one price format on a product page and another while browsing or shopping. The module is designed to provide a consistent tax display experience across supported product and shopping areas, helping customers understand the prices they see as they move through your store.
5. Multi-Currency Compatibility
For stores using multiple currencies, the module is designed to work with PrestaShop's existing currency and price formatting system. This allows prices to continue using the currency and formatting configured for the storefront.
6. Responsive Front-Office Interface
The tax switcher is designed for use across desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices. Customers can access the price display option while shopping from different screen sizes.
7. Flexible Front-Office Display
Present the tax switcher in a clean interface that fits naturally into your store's design. Give customers a clear and convenient way to identify and select the price format they need.
8. Easy Back-Office Configuration
Manage the module from your PrestaShop administration panel. Configure the available tax-switching options according to your store requirements without needing to modify PrestaShop core files.

Who Should Use the PrestaShop Price Tax Switcher?
This module is particularly useful for businesses that serve customers with different tax display expectations.
B2B Wholesale Stores
Allow professional buyers and wholesale customers to view net prices excluding tax when comparing product costs.
B2C Retail Stores
Give retail shoppers a clear view of tax-inclusive product prices while also providing an alternative net-price display.

Example: How Tax-Included and Tax-Excluded Prices Differ
Suppose a product has a net price of ₹1,000 and the applicable tax rate is 18%.
| Price component |
Amount |
| Product price excluding tax |
₹1,000 |
| Applicable tax (18%) |
₹180 |
| Price including tax |
₹1,180 |
A retail customer can choose to view ₹1,180, while a business customer can switch to view ₹1,000. The example illustrates the price presentation; actual tax calculations depend on the store's configured tax rules.
