About the VAT Calculator

VAT-inclusive prices are worked backwards by dividing by one plus the rate. At 20% that means dividing by 1.2 - the common shortcut of taking 20% off the total is wrong and understates the net amount.

Rates differ by country and by product category, and reduced or zero rates are common for food, books and childrens clothing. Enter the rate that applies to your goods rather than assuming the standard one.
