How to Calculate VAT
Value Added Tax (VAT) is a consumption tax applied to goods and services. This calculator supports adding VAT to a price and extracting VAT from a price that already includes tax.
Add VAT Formula
VAT Amount = Net Price × (VAT Rate ÷ 100)
Gross Price = Net Price + VAT Amount
Remove VAT Formula
Net Price = Gross Price ÷ (1 + VAT Rate ÷ 100)
VAT Amount = Gross Price − Net Price
Example Calculation
Suppose a product has a net price of $100 and the VAT rate is 20%:
- Net price: $100.00
- VAT rate: 20%
- VAT amount: $20.00
- Gross price: $120.00
If the price of $120 already includes 20% VAT, removing VAT gives a net price of $100 and a VAT amount of $20.
