How are the results calculated?
Adding VAT: VAT = net amount × (rate ÷ 100).
Extracting VAT: net amount = inclusive total ÷ (1 + rate ÷ 100).
Inclusive total = net amount + VAT.
Assumptions and limits
- The calculator starts at 15%, Saudi Arabia’s standard VAT rate according to ZATCA. Adjust it for the calculation you want to check; the tool calculates amounts and does not classify the tax treatment of your activity.
- Amounts are rounded to a halala. When extracting VAT, the net amount is rounded first and VAT is the difference, so both amounts add up to the entered total. Rounding across multiple invoice lines may differ.

Understand the idea behind the calculation
Using the tool and understanding your results
Enter an invoice amount and choose whether it includes VAT. The calculator shows the net price, VAT amount and total. It starts at 15%, and you can change the rate for your calculation.
How do I add 15% VAT to a price?
Multiply the price before VAT by 0.15 to find the tax, then add it to the original price. A SAR 200 price gives SAR 30 VAT and a SAR 230 total.
How do I remove VAT from a tax-inclusive price?
At 15%, divide the inclusive price by 1.15, then subtract the result from the total to find VAT. Select the tax-inclusive mode: SAR 230 returns SAR 200 before VAT and SAR 30 tax.
Why should I not subtract 15% from the inclusive price?
VAT is a percentage of the original net price. Subtracting 15% from the larger inclusive total uses a different base. Extract the tax with total × 15 ÷ 115, or use the calculator’s inclusive mode.
