This VAT calculator covers UK VAT at the standard 20% rate, the reduced 5% rate (domestic fuel and power, energy-saving materials, children's car seats, and certain other goods), and the zero rate (most food, books, children's clothing, and public transport).
Enter a net or gross amount, choose the applicable rate, and the calculator returns the net amount, gross amount, and VAT figure instantly. Results update on the fly — no form submission required.
Select Add VAT to calculate the VAT-inclusive (gross) price from a net price — useful for pricing and issuing VAT invoices. Select Remove VAT to strip VAT from a gross price and find the net amount and the VAT component — useful when checking supplier invoices or reclaiming input VAT.
Note: the UK left the EU VAT area in January 2021. This calculator handles UK domestic VAT only. For EU cross-border transactions, use the EU VAT Calculator.
