Fórmula
VAT is a percentage of the net price. To remove VAT from a gross price, divide by (1 + rate).
Gross = net × (1 + rate)
Net = gross / (1 + rate)
VAT = gross − net
Example at 20%
- Add: £100 net → VAT £20 → gross £120.
- Remove: £120 gross → net 120 / 1.2 = £100 → VAT £20.
- Note: VAT in a gross price is 1/6 of the total at 20%, not 20%.
Preguntas frecuentes
What VAT rate should I use?
Rates vary by country and product. For example, the UK standard rate is 20% and Germany's is 19%, with reduced rates for some goods. Check your tax authority for the correct rate.
Is GST the same as VAT?
Goods and services tax (used in Canada, Australia, India and elsewhere) works the same way for this calculation.
Why can't I just subtract 20% to remove VAT?
Because VAT was added on the smaller net amount. Subtracting 20% of the gross price removes too much.
