VAT rates differ by country and product (UK standard 20%, reduced 5%, zero-rated 0%). This tool is a neutral calculation — use the rate that applies to you.
Net is the price before VAT; gross is the price with VAT included. Adding VAT multiplies net by (1 + rate); removing it divides gross by (1 + rate). Small-rate differences compound on large invoices, so it pays to get the direction right.
