意味

Tax excluded; excluding tax; before tax. Used for prices that do not include consumption tax.

A noun and no-adjective indicating that a price or amount does not include tax. The counterpart to 税込み (zeikomi, tax-included). Common on older price tags and in wholesale contexts: 税抜き価格 (pre-tax price), 税抜きで (excluding tax). Since 2021, Japan requires 税込み display in consumer-facing retail, but 税抜き is still common in business-to-business transactions.

例文

1. この値段は税抜きなので消費税が別途かかります。
2. 税抜きだと二千円ですが税込みだと二千二百円です。
3. 法律で税抜き表示のみは禁止されている。
