The WooCommerce settings allow you to show prices including OR excluding tax. But what if we want to show both at the same time e.g. “$100 inc. tax – $89 ex. tax”?
Yes, in theory you could add a WooCommerce suffix via the settings, but unfortunately WooCommerce wraps such suffix in a “small” HTML tag and therefore the whole content is smaller in size, including the second price.
In this tutorial, we’ll see how to add a suffix via PHP instead, and specifically at how to add the price including tax if your store displays prices excluding tax. Enjoy!
My dev site has the following settings: (1) display prices without tax (2) standard tax rate of 22%. With the snippet below, I’ve managed to add the “ex. TAX – $PRICE inc. TAX” suffix.
PHP Snippet: Display Prices With + Without Tax @ WooCommerce Frontend
You can place PHP snippets at the bottom of your child theme functions.php file (delete "?>" if you have it there). CSS, on the other hand, goes in your child theme style.css file. Make sure you know what you are doing when editing such files - if you need more guidance, please take a look at my free video tutorial "Where to Place WooCommerce Customization?"
Does this snippet (still) work?
Please let me know in the comments if everything worked as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting on PHP 7.3.

Hi. I add the code but it shows the same price for including and excluding VAT. So it didn’t do calculation based on my VAT rates in Woocommerce settings.
Do you have any quick hook or filter, to implement this on the product edit screen in WP-admin?
We are adding prices excl. tax to our product edit screen, but it would be nice to show a price calculation next to or below that field which said: Price incl.: xxx.xx – preferably using a JS so it changed on the fly, while editing the regular price.
Hello Roger, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is definitely possible, but I’m afraid it’s custom work. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding!
Is it possible to use the Remove Variable Product price range AND put the suffix of Ex VAT on the end of the From: £100.00 price so it is From £100.00 Ex Vat
or even better to combine both options to then show:
From £100.00 Ex Vat (£120.00 Inc VAT)

Just add a “BR” HTML tag in between the two strings

Thanks Davit. You definitely set up taxes properly in the Woo settings?
