The VAT amount and total (or ex-VAT price) above come from the amount, rate, and add/remove mode you enter — not a live Revenue feed. Rates match published Ireland VAT bands on revenue.ie (from 1 January 2026). Below are the formulas, steps, and worked examples from the same engine as the live calculator.
Worked example — add 23%
Add 23% VAT — €100.00 net
| Mode | Add VAT |
| Net amount | €100.00 |
| Rate | 23% |
| VAT | €23.00 |
| Gross total | €123.00 |
€100.00 × 23% = €23.00 VAT → €123.00 gross
Worked example — remove 23%
Remove 23% VAT — €123.00 gross
| Mode | Remove VAT |
| Gross (incl. VAT) | €123.00 |
| Rate | 23% |
| Net (ex-VAT) | €100.00 |
| VAT embedded | €23.00 |
€123.00 ÷ 1.23 = €100.00 net; VAT = €23.00
Reduced rate (13.5%)
€100.00 × 13.5% = €13.50 VAT → €113.50 gross
Formulas
- Add VAT — VAT amount: VAT = Net price × (Rate % ÷ 100)
- Add VAT — gross total: Gross = Net + VAT
- Remove VAT — net price: Net = Gross ÷ (1 + Rate % ÷ 100)
- Remove VAT — VAT embedded: VAT = Gross − Net
- Rounding: All EUR amounts rounded to the nearest cent (2 decimal places)
Calculation steps
- Choose the VAT rateStandard 23%, reduced 13.5%, second reduced 9%, livestock 4.8%, zero 0%, or a custom %
Most goods and services use the standard rate. Reduced, second reduced, livestock, and zero rates apply only to qualifying supplies — check Revenue guidance for your product. From 1 July 2026, restaurant/catering food and hairdressing move to the 9% second reduced rate.
- Choose add or remove modeAdd: amount is ex-VAT · Remove: amount includes VAT
Add mode prices a shelf/net figure up to a customer total. Remove mode backs VAT out of an invoice or receipt gross.
- Add VATVAT = Amount × Rate; Gross = Amount + VAT
Multiply the net price by the rate, then add VAT to get the gross.
- Remove VATNet = Gross ÷ (1 + Rate); VAT = Gross − Net
Because Gross = Net × (1 + Rate), divide the VAT-inclusive total by (1 + rate) to isolate the net.
- Round to centsround(value, 2) — half-up to 2 decimals
Matches typical invoice rounding. Tiny differences can appear if you add then remove on odd amounts.

Adding 23% VAT to €100.00

This is the usual calculation for standard-rated goods and services sold by a VAT-registered business. On an invoice, list net, rate, VAT, and gross separately.
Reduced-rate check at €100.00
If Revenue treats the supply as reduced-rated, VAT drops to €13.50 and the gross is €113.50 — €9.50 less than the standard-rated gross.
Reduced rate is not automatic for “cheap” or “essential” items — only qualifying categories under Revenue rules (for example construction, hotel accommodation, and certain fuels).
Second reduced rate (9%) at €100.00
At 9%, VAT is €9.00 and the gross is €109.00.
From 1 July 2026, restaurant/catering food and hairdressing use this band when the supply qualifies. Hotel accommodation stays at 13.5%; alcohol and soft drinks with a meal stay at 23%.
Zero-rated vs €100.00 at standard rate
A zero-rated supply at €100.00 net has €0.00 VAT. Compared with standard rate, the customer saves €23.00 on this line.
Most basic food, children’s clothing, oral medicines, and books/newspapers are typically zero-rated — check Revenue lists before assuming 0%.
Working backwards from a VAT-inclusive total
If a receipt shows €123.00 including 23% VAT, the net is €100.00.
Use remove mode whenever the amount you see already includes VAT.
When this amount shows up in real life
€100.00 is a common quote, deposit, or line-item size for freelancers and small traders. Model it ex-VAT first if you are (or expect to be) VAT-registered, then add the correct rate.
Registration is about taxable turnover across a period (services €42,500; goods €85,000), not whether a single invoice equals €100.00.
Checklist
- Verify €100.00 is the net (ex-VAT) figure before adding VAT.
- Pick standard vs reduced vs second reduced vs livestock vs zero based on the supply, not the amount.
- Round to the nearest cent on invoices.
- Do not add 23% again if the figure already includes VAT — use remove mode.
- Keep the calculation for your records if you are VAT-registered.
