Why FaLe?
Exact to the cent
VAT is always gross minus net – so the three amounts always add up, with no stray rounding cent.
Rounding difference shown
With several items the calculator shows whether rounding per item or on the total differs by a cent – the most common reason for invoice queries.
Germany, Austria, Switzerland
19 % and 7 %, Austria's 20, 13 and 10 %, Switzerland's 8.1, 3.8 and 2.6 % – or any rate you need.

Frequently asked questions
How do I remove VAT from a price?
Divide the gross amount by 1 plus the rate, e.g. by 1.19 for 19 %. That gives the net amount; the difference to gross is the VAT. Example: 119 ÷ 1.19 = 100 net, 19 VAT.
Why isn't 19 % of the gross price the VAT?
Because the 19 % is added to the net amount. Within the gross amount the VAT is only 19/119, about 15.97 %.
Should VAT be rounded per item or on the total?
Both are allowed; what matters is using one method consistently. With several items the calculator shows whether, and by how much, the two differ.
Which rates are built in?
Germany 19 % and 7 %, Austria 20 %, 13 % and 10 %, Switzerland 8.1 %, 3.8 % and 2.6 %, plus 0 % and any rate you enter yourself.
