The calculator
How the VAT calculator works
Enter a figure and the calculator adds VAT to a net amount, or removes VAT from a gross amount, at the standard, reduced or zero rate. It is handy for pricing, invoicing and checking supplier bills.
Businesses must register for VAT once taxable turnover passes the registration threshold, and can register voluntarily below it. Once registered you charge VAT on sales, reclaim it on eligible purchases, and file returns under Making Tax Digital.
