How it works

Understand the calculation

VAT rates differ by country and can change. Enter the rate that applies to your situation, then choose whether you are adding VAT or extracting it from an inclusive total.

PercentWise performs the arithmetic in your browser. Your calculator inputs are not sent to our server by the calculator itself.

ExampleAdd 15% VAT to 100

VAT 15; gross amount 115

ExampleRemove 20% VAT from 120

Net amount 100; VAT portion 20

Using the result

Check that the values and percentage rate match the question you are trying to answer. For important financial, tax, payroll or academic decisions, verify any required rates or rules with the relevant official source.
