VAT Calculator

The result separates the net amount, VAT amount, and gross total. If the amount includes VAT, the tool extracts VAT from the total; otherwise it treats the amount as net and adds VAT.

For VAT-exclusive amounts: VAT = Amount × Rate ÷ 100.

• For VAT-exclusive amounts: VAT amount = amount x VAT rate / 100.
• Gross total = net amount + VAT amount.
• For VAT-inclusive amounts: net amount = gross amount / (1 + rate / 100).
• VAT amount = gross total - net amount.

At 20% VAT, 1,000 becomes 1,200 gross.

• Use the valid rate for the transaction date.
• Refer to official records for accounting.

VAT calculation helps separate the taxable base, the tax amount, and the final customer-facing total. This tool supports both VAT-inclusive and VAT-exclusive workflows so the same page can be used for pricing, checking invoices, and estimating totals.

When the entered amount is VAT-exclusive, the calculator multiplies the amount by the selected VAT rate and divides the result by 100. The VAT amount is then added to the net amount to produce the gross total.

When the entered amount already includes VAT, the calculation is reversed. The gross amount is divided by 1 plus the VAT rate divided by 100. The difference between the gross amount and the calculated net amount is the VAT component.

The most common mistake is mixing inclusive and exclusive values in the same comparison. A net price and a gross price can look similar but represent different commercial meanings.
