BEHIND YOUR NUMBER

A little understanding
goes a long way.

How do I remove VAT?

Divide the gross price by 1.2 for 20% VAT. Do not just take 20% off: that would remove too much.

Net = Gross ÷ 1.2 · VAT = Gross ÷ 6

What are the UK VAT rates?

The standard rate is 20%. The reduced rate of 5% applies to things like home energy and children’s car seats. Some items, like most food and children’s clothes, are zero-rated.
