VAT inclusive and exclusive calculator guide

WeCovr's VAT inclusive and exclusive calculator helps you add VAT to a net amount or remove VAT from a gross amount. It is useful when switching between before-VAT and after-VAT prices.

What this VAT calculator does

This calculator works in two directions. You can start with a net amount and add VAT, or start with a gross amount and strip VAT back out.

It is useful for quoting, invoicing, budgeting, and checking how much of a VAT-inclusive price is tax.

  • Adds VAT to a net amount.

  • Removes VAT from a gross amount.

  • Shows net, VAT, and gross values together.

Why inclusive and exclusive prices matter

Many people see VAT-inclusive prices but need to know the underlying net value. Others start with a net price and need to show the final price after VAT is added.

Important limits

This tool does not determine the correct VAT treatment for your transaction. Rates and rules can vary, so confirm details with official guidance or a qualified adviser.
