VAT Calculation
This tool calculates the VAT amount and the VAT-inclusive total when you enter the net (VAT-exclusive) amount and VAT rate.
Calculating…
Calculation formula
VAT-inclusive amount = Net amount + VAT amount
VAT-exclusive amount = VAT-inclusive amount ÷ (1 + Rate ÷ 100)
How to interpret it?
This tool goes from net to gross. If you are calculating in the reverse direction, that is, you have a VAT-inclusive amount and want to find the net amount, divide the gross amount by (1 + rate ÷ 100). The net equivalent of a 1,200 TL VAT-inclusive amount at 20% is 1,000 TL.
A common mistake in e-commerce is treating the marketplace price as the net amount. The price you see on the storefront is usually VAT-inclusive; do not do your profit calculation without clarifying this distinction.
Limitations: what does this tool not calculate?
You enter the rate. The tool does not know the current rate, which varies by product and service group.
