What Is VAT?

Value Added Tax (VAT) is a consumption tax charged on goods and services at each stage of production or distribution. The final consumer bears the cost, while businesses collect and remit it to the government. VAT rates vary by country and product category — common rates include 5% (reduced), 12% (intermediate), and 20% (standard).

How to Use This VAT Calculator

  • Add VAT: Enter the net (pre-tax) price and your VAT rate. The calculator returns the gross price and the VAT amount.
  • Remove VAT: Enter the gross (VAT-inclusive) price and the rate. The calculator extracts the original net price and the tax portion.

VAT Formulas

  • Gross price (adding VAT): Gross = Net × (1 + rate ÷ 100)
  • Net price (removing VAT): Net = Gross ÷ (1 + rate ÷ 100)
  • VAT amount: VAT = Gross − Net

Common VAT Rates

Standard VAT rates range from 17% (Singapore GST) to 27% (Hungary). The UK and many EU countries use 20% as the standard rate. Some essential goods (food, medicine, children's clothing) attract a reduced or zero rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is VAT the same as sales tax?

Can I use a custom rate?

Yes. This calculator accepts any VAT or GST rate — just type the percentage into the custom field.
