What is VAT Calculation?
VAT calculation is the process of determining the Value Added Tax amount over the sales price of a product or service. According to the VAT rates applied in Turkey, the VAT inclusive or VAT exclusive amount of a price can be easily calculated. Thanks to the VAT calculator, you can quickly and practically learn the VAT amount, net price, and total amount payable based on the sales amount.
How to Calculate VAT?
VAT calculation is performed by multiplying the VAT-exclusive price of the product or service by the VAT rate. The most commonly used VAT rates in Turkey are 1%, 10%, and 20%.
The VAT calculation formula is as follows:
VAT Amount = VAT-Exclusive Amount × VAT Rate
When calculating the VAT-inclusive price, the VAT amount is added to the VAT-exclusive amount. VAT calculation tools perform this process automatically, instantly showing both the VAT amount and the total price.
VAT Calculation Example
To better understand VAT calculation, let's look at a simple example.
When a 20% VAT is calculated for a product with a VAT-exclusive price of 1,000 TL, the transaction is carried out as follows:
VAT Amount = 1,000 × 0.20 = 200 TL
In this case:
VAT-Exclusive Amount: 1,000 TL
VAT Amount: 200 TL
VAT-Inclusive Amount: 1,200 TL
With the VAT calculator tool, you can calculate VAT-inclusive or VAT-exclusive prices for different amounts and VAT rates in seconds.
