How VAT Calculation Works

Adding Tax (Tax-Exclusive Price)

Tax Amount = Base Price × (Tax Rate ÷ 100)

Total Price = Base Price + Tax Amount

Example: €10,000 at 23% VAT

Tax = €10,000 × 0.23 = €2,300

Total = €10,000 + €2,300 = €12,300

Removing Tax (Tax-Inclusive Price)

Base Price = Total Price ÷ (1 + Tax Rate ÷ 100)

Tax Amount = Total Price − Base Price

Example: €12,300 inclusive of 23% VAT

Base = €12,300 ÷ 1.23 = €10,000

Tax = €12,300 − €10,000 = €2,300

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate GST on a price?+
To add VAT: Multiply the base price by (1 + VAT rate). For example, €1,000 at 23% VAT = €1,000 × 1.23 = €1,230. To find VAT in an inclusive price: VAT = Price × Rate / (100 + Rate).
