How VAT and GST calculations work

VAT and GST are consumption taxes used in many countries and territories. The terminology and rules vary by jurisdiction, so this calculator uses a country-specific default standard rate while allowing you to edit the rate.

Add tax
Tax = Net Amount × Tax Rate ÷ 100
Gross Amount = Net Amount + Tax

Remove tax
Net Amount = Gross Amount ÷ (1 + Tax Rate ÷ 100)
Tax = Gross Amount − Net Amount

Example

Suppose a product costs €1,000 before VAT and the VAT rate is 20%.

Net amount €1,000.00
VAT rate 20%
VAT amount €200.00
Gross amount €1,200.00

Removing VAT example

If €1,200 already includes 20% VAT, the net amount is €1,000 and the VAT component is €200.
