VAT calculator (15%)
Add 15% VAT to a price before tax, or find the price before VAT and the VAT included in a shelf price or an invoice total.
The formulas
- Price including VAT = price before VAT × 1.15
- Price before VAT = price including VAT ÷ 1.15
- VAT included in a price = price including VAT × 15 ÷ 115, about 13.04% of the price paid
Examples
| Price paid | Before VAT | VAT |
|---|---|---|
| SAR 23 | SAR 20 | SAR 3 |
| SAR 115 | SAR 100 | SAR 15 |
| SAR 1,150 | SAR 1,000 | SAR 150 |
