Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-4160:
-------------------------------------

The Nederlandse Belastingdienst states on their website regarding BTW 
requirements on the invoice:


 * the invoice must show the amount the company charges the customer to pay, 
without VAT,
 * the VAT rate (per product category),
 * the VAT amount (split per VAT rate).

How that is displayed in product pages and shopping carts in e-stores is up to 
the company, and I must say influenced by marketing purposes, pragmatism and 
historically influenced: 
 * if the (main) focus is B2C then - commonly - prices in product pages and 
shopping carts are shown including VAT, with some listing the VAT amount as 
well. This is inline with what is shown in B%M stores,
 * if the (main) focus is B2B then prices in product pages and shopping carts 
are shown excluding VAT, optionally listing the VAT amount (and rate).

As an example: see 
[https://www.amac.nl/apple-mac-mini-2-6ghz-dual-core-i5-8gb-1tb] offering a Mac 
Mini. This is a company (with a main focus on B2C, but does B2B too). The 
product page shows the price including VAT (with no VAT amount listed). However 
the invoice will state:
 * On the product line for each product/service the unit price ex VAT, 
quantity, the VAT rate and the total amount ex VAT.
 * If shipping cost were involved this would be shown on a new product line 
stating the VAT rate and the calculated/charged amount.

And below the product lines, the following would be shown:
 * the sub total (ex VAT)
 * the total amounts per VAT rate
 * the grand total amount (amount to be paid by the customer).

Some e-stores offer a toggle mechanism to show prices including/excluding VAT. 
See

I trust the above helps.
