How VAT Calculation Works

Add VAT to a Net Price

Gross = Net × (1 + Rate ÷ 100)

Example at 20%: Net €100 → Gross = 100 × 1.20 = €120.00
VAT amount = €120.00 − €100.00 = €20.00

Remove VAT from a Gross Price

Net = Gross ÷ (1 + Rate ÷ 100)

Example at 20%: Gross €120 → Net = 120 ÷ 1.20 = €100.00
VAT amount = €120.00 − €100.00 = €20.00
