VAT Calculator

Add VAT to a net amount, or pull the VAT out of a price that already includes it. Bahrain, Oman and the UAE charge 5% or 10%, Saudi Arabia 15%; enter your own rate if it differs.

How the vat calculator works

Formula. Adding VAT: gross = net × (1 + rate). Removing VAT: net = gross ÷ (1 + rate), and VAT = gross − net.

Example. A price of 110 including 10% VAT is 100 net plus 10 VAT.

Tip. Never remove VAT by taking 10% off the gross price. 10% of 110 is 11, which overstates the tax.
