What Is a VAT Exclusive Calculator?
A VAT Exclusive Calculator works backward from a VAT-inclusive amount.

Original price before VAT
VAT amount included
Total amount including VAT
This is useful when reviewing invoices, receipts, supplier bills, expense claims, and financial records.
VAT Exclusive Formula
To remove VAT from a VAT-inclusive amount:
VAT Exclusive Price = VAT Inclusive Price ÷ (1 + VAT Rate)
Example
Total Price Including VAT: $115
VAT Rate: 15%
Calculation:
$115 ÷ 1.15 = $100
VAT Amount:
$115 − $100 = $15
Result:
VAT Exclusive Price = $100
VAT Amount = $15
VAT Inclusive Price = $115
