Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about VAT calculations.

How do I add VAT to a price?

Enter the net price (before VAT), input your VAT rate (e.g. 23%), select "Add VAT" and press Calculate. You'll see the gross price including VAT and the exact tax amount.

How do I remove VAT from a price?

Enter the gross price (already includes VAT), set the rate, select "Remove VAT" and press Calculate. The calculator reverse-calculates and shows the net price and how much VAT was included.

What is the formula for VAT?

Adding VAT: Gross = Net × (1 + Rate/100). E.g. €100 + 23% = €123.

Removing VAT: Net = Gross ÷ (1 + Rate/100). E.g. €123 ÷ 1.23 = €100.

VAT amount = Gross − Net.
