Use this UAE VAT calculator to add VAT to a net amount (net to gross) or to extract VAT from a VAT-inclusive total (gross to net). You can edit the VAT rate, run quick examples in AED, and copy a clean breakdown for invoices, quotes, and budgeting.
Quick examples
Tip: Use "Add VAT" when you have a net price and want the VAT-inclusive total. Use "Remove VAT" when you have a VAT-inclusive total and need the net amount.
UAE VAT is often shown either as a net price (VAT exclusive) or a VAT-inclusive total (VAT inclusive). This calculator supports both directions so you can build a correct invoice total or quickly reverse-calculate the net amount from a gross price.
This calculator supports two simple VAT workflows. You either add VAT to a base amount (net to gross) or remove VAT from a VAT-inclusive total (gross to net). The key is using the VAT rate as a decimal (for example, 5% becomes 0.05).
Total = Base x (1 + Rate)
VAT = Total - Base
Base = Total / (1 + Rate)
VAT = Total - Base
