About this utility

Transparent Value Added Tax computation and invoice pricing

Calculating Value Added Tax correctly is vital for freelancers, small business owners, contractors, and shoppers. LoveEasyTool VAT Calculator lets you seamlessly calculate VAT in both directions: add tax to a net figure (Net to Gross) to determine what to invoice your client, or extract tax from a gross receipt (Gross to Net) to determine what portion represents deductible tax. You can enter any customized tax rate (such as the standard UK 20%, reduced 5%, UAE/Saudi 5-15%, or European standard rates) and see an instant breakdown of the net price, exact tax amount, and final gross total.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this VAT calculator free?

Yes, the tool is 100% free with no fees, registration, or software downloads.

How do you remove 20% VAT from a gross price?

To remove 20% VAT, divide the gross amount by 1.20. For example, £120 gross / 1.20 = £100 net amount. The VAT portion is £20.

Why can’t I just subtract 20% from the gross price?

Subtracting 20% from a gross price produces an incorrect lower figure because 20% was originally calculated on the smaller net base, not the larger gross total.

Does this calculator work for countries outside the UK?

Yes. While 20% is set as a convenient default, you can input any custom tax percentage such as 5%, 7%, 15%, or 21% for any jurisdiction.

Are my financial values stored or tracked?

Never. Calculations are ephemeral and execute locally in your browser session. No figures are uploaded or logged.
