About this tool
This page opens the VAT calculator with the Dutch standard rate of 21% already entered — fill in the amount, choose add or remove, and read the net price, BTW amount and gross total at once.
The Netherlands has charged a standard BTW (belasting over de toegevoegde waarde) rate of 21% since 2012, and it still applies to most goods and services in 2026. A reduced 9% rate covers groceries, medicines, books and some services — type 9 into the rate field when you deal with those.
Choose add mode to gross up a net quote for a Dutch customer, or remove mode to recover the net amount from a gross receipt — the calculator divides by 1.21 instead of naively subtracting 21%. It all runs locally in your browser and works with any currency.
Example. Adding 20 percent VAT to a net price of 100 returns VAT of 20 and a gross price of 120.
Limit. A single rate is applied to the whole amount, with no line-by-line mixed rates.
