Price VAT incl. and excl. on product detail page DAWM Theme

Topic summary

A user sought help displaying both VAT-inclusive and VAT-exclusive prices on product pages using the DAWM Shopify theme.

Solution Provided:

  • Modify the price.liquid file in the theme code
  • Set a tax rate variable (e.g., 20%)
  • Update specific <span> tags to display both price formats on product detail pages
  • The solution successfully shows dual pricing only on individual product pages, not collection/shop pages

Key Considerations:

  • Multiple users confirmed the code modification works
  • One limitation noted: prices display correctly on product pages but not in multi-product shop views
  • Google Merchant Center risk: Displaying two prices simultaneously may violate policies and result in bans

Alternative Approach:

  • The T-Selector app was recommended as a safer solution
  • Allows customers to toggle between incl./excl. VAT views
  • Supports geo-location based tax rates for different countries/markets
  • Shows only one price at a time, avoiding Google Shopping compliance issues

Open Questions:

  • One user asked about implementing country-specific tax rates via Shopify Markets
  • Another user reported the original code solution no longer works and requested assistance

Hello @Teddy9

I can see that you found a solution which is great!

I would just like to mention our app that we developed for cases like this. It’s called T-Selector and it lets your customers to select if they like to see the price excluding or including VAT.

One big benefit of doing it this way is that you reduce the risk of being banned from Google merchant center and Google Shopping which will happen if they detect more than one price (two if you have a sale).

You can find out more about T-Selector in Shopify app store - https://apps.shopify.com/tax-selector
