How to read the result

When adding VAT, the entered amount is treated as net. When removing VAT, the entered amount is treated as gross and the net value is calculated by dividing by `1 + rate/100`, not by simply subtracting the percentage.

Limitations

The default rate is 20% for convenience, but VAT rules and applicable rates depend on country, product, transaction and tax status. This calculator performs arithmetic only and is not tax advice.
