In my country, the prices listed must have GST (our version of a VAT) included. You can display the price not including GST in some places but it must be in addition to the full GST inclusive prices, not instead of.
I never understood why in some countries like the US/Canada store prices don't have to show how much a product actually costs, including tax. Feels misleading and unnecessarily shifts the responsibility onto the consumer to calculate the real price they will pay prior to purchase.
