How it works
The formula behind this calculator.

VAT = net × rate/100; gross = net × (1 + rate/100); net = gross / (1 + rate/100)

net
Price before VAT
rate
VAT rate (%)

VAT is added to the net price. To remove VAT from a gross price, divide by 1 + rate. To add it, multiply by 1 + rate.

Example: 20% VAT on $100 net → VAT = $20, gross = $120

Ref: EU VAT Directive (2006/112/EC); rates differ by country

Tips
  • 💡 VAT is added to the net price, not the gross. To remove VAT from a gross price, multiply by 100/(100+VAT%).
  • 💡 VAT rates differ by country and product category. Confirm the rate that applies to your case.
