How does it work?
1. Enter the amount
Type the amount you want to calculate VAT on — net or gross, your choice.
2. Pick rate and direction
21% (standard/high), 9% (reduced rate) or 0%, and indicate whether the amount includes or excludes VAT.
3. See net, VAT and gross
The breakdown appears instantly: the amount excluding VAT, the VAT itself and the amount including VAT.
The Netherlands uses a standard rate of 21% and a reduced rate of 9% for items such as food, books and certain services. A 0% zero rate applies to some supplies. This calculator works both directions: adding VAT on top (excl. → incl.) or extracting it (incl. → excl.).

How do I calculate VAT?
You calculate VAT by multiplying the net amount by the rate. At 21%, for example, € 100 × 0.21 = € 21 VAT, giving a gross amount of € 121. To extract VAT from a gross amount instead, divide by 1.21. This calculator handles both directions instantly.
What is the reduced VAT rate?
The reduced VAT (BTW) rate in the Netherlands is 9%. It applies to items such as food, books, medicines and a number of services. The standard rate is 21%, and a 0% zero rate applies to certain supplies.
