About the VAT Calculator

The VAT Calculator gives you an instant answer from just a few inputs — amount (excl. vat), vat rate. It runs entirely in your browser, so the numbers you enter stay private and never touch a server, and the result recalculates the moment you change a value. It's free to use with no sign-up, no limits, and nothing to install.

Worth Knowing

Value Added Tax is charged as a percentage of the net price and is standard across much of the world outside the US, with rates commonly between 15% and 25%. The wrinkle that trips people up is the difference between adding VAT to a net figure and extracting VAT already baked into a gross price — the two use different arithmetic. Unlike US sales tax, VAT is collected at each stage of production, but the consumer ultimately bears the full amount.

How to Use

  1. Enter Amount (excl. VAT) into the first field of the VAT Calculator.
  2. Fill in the rest: VAT rate.
  3. Your result appears instantly as you type — there's no submit button or page reload.
