VAT Calculator & VAT Invoice Generator
Add or remove VAT for the UK, France or a custom rate, then download a compliant VAT invoice.
About this tool
Work out VAT in either direction: add VAT to a net figure, or strip VAT out of a gross figure to find the net and the tax. UK and French rates are built in, including reduced and zero rates, and you can enter a custom rate for anywhere else. When the numbers are right, add your business details and download a VAT invoice with the net, VAT and gross clearly separated.

- Choose whether your amount excludes VAT (add) or includes it (remove).
- Enter the amount and read the net, VAT and gross breakdown.
- Fill in your business details, VAT number and the customer's details.
- Add line items if needed and download the VAT invoice as a PDF.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the UK VAT rate?
- The standard UK rate is 20%, with a reduced rate of 5% and a zero rate for certain goods and services.
- What is the French VAT rate?
- France's standard TVA rate is 20%, with intermediate 10%, reduced 5.5% and super-reduced 2.1% rates.
- How do I remove VAT from a gross figure?
- Divide by 1 plus the rate — at 20%, divide the gross by 1.2 to get the net; the difference is the VAT. The tool does this for you.
- What must a VAT invoice show?
- Typically your VAT number, an invoice number and date, both parties' details, a description of the supply, the net amount, the VAT rate and amount, and the gross total. The generated invoice includes all of these fields.
