Frequently Asked Questions
How do I remove VAT from a price? +
To remove VAT, divide the VAT-inclusive price by (1 + rate/100). For example, to remove 20% VAT from $120: $120 / 1.20 = $100 net price, with $20 being the VAT amount.
What is the difference between VAT and sales tax? +
VAT (Value Added Tax) is collected at each stage of production and is common in Europe. Sales tax is collected only at the final point of sale and is used in the US. Both add a percentage to the price; this calculator works for either.
How do I calculate VAT on multiple items? +
Enter the total price of all items and the applicable tax rate. The calculator will compute the total VAT amount. If items have different tax rates, calculate each group separately and add the results.
What are common VAT rates in Europe? +
Standard rates vary: UK 20%, Germany 19%, France 20%, Spain 21%, Italy 22%, Netherlands 21%, Sweden 25%. Most EU countries also have reduced rates for essentials like food and books.
