How this calculator works

The calculator divides the gross amount by one plus the VAT rate.

It subtracts the net amount from the gross amount to show VAT included.

It uses only the rate you enter and does not verify tax eligibility or exemptions.

Example calculation

Example: EUR 119 including 19% VAT gives an estimated EUR 100 net amount and EUR 19 VAT included.

Important limitation

This calculator is a planning estimate only. It does not replace official tax, payroll, accounting, legal or government advice.

Official data note
