Must the seller include the value of taxes in the sales invoice and calculate it upon receiving the price?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the tax is imposed on the seller, then he is not permitted to pass it on to the buyer except by mutual consent or established custom. However, if it is imposed on the buyer, then there is no harm for the seller in itemizing it on the invoice, because it is part of the price. Imposing taxes is not permissible except in specific cases.
