VAT and withholding tax on documents
Set VAT per line and withholding tax for the whole invoice. Totals are calculated for you.
VAT per line
In the items table on an invoice, enter a VAT percentage in the VAT column for each line. Leave it empty for lines without VAT. On the printed invoice, the VAT column only shows when a line uses it.
Withholding tax
- 1
Open an invoice or a recurring bill.
- 2
In the right panel, find the Tax section.

Withholding tax is calculated from the total after each line's discount.
What the invoice shows

- VAT

Tax details for you and your client
Set your name, tax invoice address and tax ID in Settings › Billing entity. For a client, use Edit client address and tax ID in the invoice's right panel.
Some older invoices may still carry a whole-invoice VAT. The right panel points this out, and Clear switches it to per-line VAT.
