With multiple VAT, Rydoo allows you to apply multiple tax rates to a single expense. This is useful when a receipt contains different VAT percentages.
All tax amounts are displayed together on the same expense. When exported, they are automatically split into separate tax lines to ensure accurate accounting.
How it works
You can add up to 4 tax rates per expense.
To add multiple VAT rates:
- Open your expense
- Click Add tax rate
- Select the applicable tax rate from the dropdown
For each tax rate, the following fields are available:
- Base (subtotal – VAT amount)
- Tax amount
- Subtotal
⚠️ Important - The sum of all subtotals must equal the total expense amount. If not, the expense cannot be submitted, approved, or exported.
You can also combine multiple VAT rates with an “Other tax rate” if needed.
Creating a multiple VAT expense
A multiple VAT expense is created like a regular expense, with additional tax lines.
You can:
- Add multiple tax rates when creating a new expense
- Or edit an existing expense and add tax rates afterwards
ℹ️ Tax rates can only be selected once a group is assigned to the expense.

How exports work
Although multiple VAT lines appear on a single expense in Rydoo, they are split into separate lines in exports.
Each tax rate generates a separate export line.
The following fields will differ per line:
- Amount (subtotal)
- Tax (%)
- Tax name
- Tax amount
- XPD
All other fields remain the same.
This ensures that expenses can be correctly processed in your ERP or accounting system.
Standard exports
In case of a multiple VAT expenses, the export will contain a line for each tax rate. The expense itself is not included. Following screenshot shows an example of the expense above in a standard export.
