How VAT works
Value Added Tax is a consumption tax charged at each stage of production, ultimately paid by the end consumer. To add VAT to a net price, multiply by (1 + rate). To work backwards from a VAT-inclusive price to find the net amount, divide by (1 + rate).
Rates shown are each country's 2026 standard VAT rate. Many countries also apply reduced rates to specific goods and services (food, books, energy, etc.) — this calculator uses the standard rate only. Source: Tax Foundation, "VAT Rates in Europe, 2026."
