Add your local tax
The chart above is tip-only. If your bill is $200 before tax, enter your tax rate below and the calculator adds it — and lets you choose whether the tip is figured on the pre-tax subtotal (the conventional base) or on the after-tax total.
Tip is calculated on
The long-standing etiquette convention is to tip on the pre-tax subtotal — the tax goes to the government, not to your server. Tipping on the post-tax total is also common and a little more generous; this switch changes the base, nothing else.

How the chart is calculated
Tip = bill × rate, rounded half-up to the nearest cent; total = bill + tip. The split amounts are penny-exact: when the total does not divide evenly, leftover cents go one each to the first shares so the parts always sum to the total. For other amounts, see tip on $50, tip on $75, tip on $100 and tip on $200 — or run any bill through the tip calculator.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a good tip on a $200 bill?
- For sit-down restaurant service in the US, 18–20% is the usual range for good service — that is $36.00 to $40.00 on a $200 bill. For takeout and counter service, less or nothing is customary; see the tipping guide for the ranges by situation.
- Is tax included in these numbers?
- No. The chart is computed on the $200 amount alone. Use the calculator above with your local tax rate if you want tax added, and remember the tip convention is to figure the percentage on the pre-tax subtotal.
