A common mistake is multiplying the gross price by the rate: 120 × 20% = 24 is wrong; the VAT is 20.

VAT rules for cross-border sellers
EU: once cross-border distance sales to EU consumers exceed €10,000 a year in total, VAT is charged at the buyer's country rate; the One-Stop Shop (OSS) lets you file once instead of registering in each country.
EU imports: consignments up to €150 can use IOSS, charging VAT at checkout so buyers pay nothing at customs; above €150 normal import VAT and duty apply.
UK: for goods up to £135 per consignment, VAT is charged at sale by the seller or marketplace; above £135 it is paid at import.
Marketplaces: when selling to EU and UK consumers through Amazon, eBay and similar platforms, the platform is often the deemed supplier that collects and remits VAT, and the seller receives the net amount.
B2B: sales to VAT-registered business buyers usually fall under the reverse charge: no VAT on the invoice, but the buyer's VAT number must be shown.
VAT rates by country
The standard rate applies to most goods and services; reduced rates usually cover food, books, medicines, accommodation and the like. The exact scope is set by each tax authority. Rates as of
What is the difference between VAT, GST and sales tax?
VAT and GST are the same kind of tax, charged on value added at each stage and borne by the consumer; Europe calls it VAT, while Australia, Singapore, India and Canada call it GST. The US has no VAT; states charge sales tax at the final retail sale.
How do I work out the net price from a gross price?
Divide the gross price by (1 + rate). For the UK at 20%: 120 ÷ 1.2 = 100, so the VAT is 20. Choose Remove VAT and enter the gross amount to get the net price and VAT.
How often are the rates updated?
The page shows the as-of date and sources. Rates change often (Estonia, Romania, Slovakia, Finland and Russia all raised their standard rates in 2025–2026), so confirm with the local tax authority before invoicing or filing; you can always type a custom rate.
VAT calculator practical guide and common questions
What does a VAT calculator do?
Standard and common reduced rates for 75 countries across the EU, Americas, Asia, the Middle East and Africa, rounded to each currency's decimals (0 for yen, 3 for Bahraini dinar); invoice lines are rounded per line and totalled, as on an invoice.
Who is this for, and when is it useful?
Cross-border sellers, export sales staff and accountants pricing for Europe, the UK and other markets, or checking payouts and invoices that need VAT added or removed.
How do I use this VAT calculator?
Choose Add or Remove VAT, pick the country (the standard rate fills in), enter the amount and read the net price, VAT and gross price; paste several amounts into invoice lines for totals.
How should I interpret the results?
Rates are for reference and dated; follow the local tax authority for invoicing and filing. The US uses sales tax and Brazil is complex, so enter those rates manually.
Where is the work performed, and which services receive data?
Amounts and rates are calculated in your browser and never uploaded; the rates table loads with the page and no network call is made.
