This page opens the VAT calculator with the United Kingdom's standard rate of 20% already filled in — enter an amount, choose whether it is net or gross, and the breakdown appears in one click.

The UK standard VAT rate has been 20% since January 2011 and still applies to most goods and services in 2026. It is not the only rate: a reduced 5% rate covers items like domestic fuel and children's car seats, and a zero rate applies to most food and children's clothing — you can type 5 or 0 into the rate field to check those.

Use add mode to put 20% on top of a net invoice amount, or remove mode to see how much VAT is inside a gross receipt (the tool divides by 1.20 rather than subtracting 20%, which is the mistake spreadsheets often encode). Everything runs locally in your browser with plain numbers in any currency.

Accepted Formats & Rules

  • Net price, VAT amount and gross price from a single input.
  • Add mode (net → gross) and remove mode (gross → net) with the exact division formula.
  • One-click copy of the full breakdown.

Key Benefits

✓ Works in both directions: add VAT to a net price or back-calculate the VAT hidden inside a gross price.
✓ Any rate, any country: type 20, 19, 23 or a reduced rate like 5.5 — decimals are fine.
✓ Runs entirely in your browser with plain numbers — works with any currency and nothing is uploaded.

Use Cases

  • • Add the standard VAT rate on top of a net quote before invoicing a client, so the gross total on the invoice is exact.
  • • Extract the VAT hidden inside a gross receipt with the correct divide-by-(1 + rate) formula when reclaiming expenses.
  • • Compare how the same price splits into net and tax under different country rates like 19%, 20%, 21% or 23%.
