VAT Calculator (UK)
Add VAT to a price, or work it back out of a total. To remove 20% VAT you divide by 1.2 — taking 20% off the total is the most common mistake and overstates the VAT.

Questions people ask
How do I remove VAT from a price?
Divide by 1.2 to get the price without VAT, or divide by 6 to get the VAT itself. A £120 price contains £20 of VAT, not £24.00.
How do I add VAT?
Multiply the net price by 1.2. £100 plus 20% VAT is £120.
What is the reduced rate of VAT?
5% — it applies to things such as domestic energy and children's car seats. Many basics like most food and children's clothes are zero-rated.
