How Does the VAT Calculator Work?
Use the calculator to add VAT to a net price or remove VAT from a VAT-inclusive total.
Adding VAT
If you know the price before VAT, the calculator calculates the VAT amount and adds it to the original net price.
Removing VAT
For a VAT-inclusive price, VAT is not removed by simply subtracting the percentage. The total is divided by (1 + VAT rate) to recover the net price.
