How VAT is calculated

If you know the price without VAT, the VAT is that price multiplied by the rate. The price with VAT is the net price multiplied by 1 + the rate.

If you know the price with VAT, divide it by 1 + the rate to get the price without VAT. The VAT is the difference between the two.

VAT = net price × 0.255
Gross price = net price × 1.255
Net price = gross price ÷ 1.255

Example: a taxi ride costs €27.24 including 13.5% VAT. The price without VAT is 27.24 ÷ 1.135 = €24.00, and the VAT is €3.24.
