VAT Calculator
This VAT calculator works in two modes: "Add VAT" calculates the gross price from a net amount, and "Extract VAT" separates the VAT portion from a gross price. Select your country to automatically load the standard VAT rate, or enter a custom rate for reduced rates or other tax types.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to add VAT to a price?
Switch to "Add VAT" mode, enter the net (excl. VAT) amount and select your country. The calculator shows the VAT amount and the total gross price. Formula: Gross = Net × (1 + VAT rate).
How to extract VAT from a gross price?
Switch to "Extract VAT" mode and enter the gross (incl. VAT) amount. The calculator calculates the net price and the VAT portion. Formula: Net = Gross / (1 + VAT rate).
What is the difference between HT and TTC (excl. vs incl. VAT)?
Excl. VAT (HT in French, net) is the price before tax is added. Incl. VAT (TTC, gross) is the final price the customer pays. The difference between them is the VAT amount.
What is the standard VAT rate in the EU?
EU VAT rates vary by country: France 20%, Germany 19%, Italy 22%, Spain 21%, Poland 23%, Lithuania/Latvia 21%, Estonia 22%, Sweden/Denmark/Norway 25%. Switzerland (not EU) has a reduced rate of 8.1%.
Can I use a custom VAT rate?
