How to calculate vat
Choose whether your amount excludes or includes VAT. Enter the applicable rate yourself; the example rate is not a determination of tax treatment.
A worked example
With amount of 100, vat rate (%) of 20, total including vat is 120 in your chosen currency. Change the example above to match your situation.
Enter amounts in the same currency and time period. Results display up to two decimal places; calculations use unrounded values. These estimates are for planning and education.
Common questions
How do I remove VAT from an inclusive price?
Divide the total by one plus the VAT rate as a decimal. For a rate of 20%, divide by 1.2. Subtracting 20% of the inclusive price gives a different result.
Does this calculator choose the correct tax rate?
No. The rate is an editable example. You must check the rate and treatment that apply to the transaction and jurisdiction before using the result.
