Adding VAT, and taking it back out

If your figure is net, it excludes VAT, so the calculator adds VAT on top: multiply the net by the rate and add it on. A net of €1,000 at 19% gains €190 of VAT, for a gross of €1,190.

If your figure is gross, it already includes VAT, so switch the mode to gross and the calculator works backwards. It divides the gross by 1 plus the rate, so for 19% it divides by 1.19. The gap between gross and net is the VAT element: output VAT you owe on a sale, or input VAT you reclaim on a purchase.

Worked example

A supplier invoices €1,190 including 19% VAT. Divide €1,190 by 1.19 to get a net of €1,000, which leaves €190 of VAT. On a sale you declare the €190 as output VAT; on a purchase you reclaim it as input VAT, provided you hold a valid VAT invoice.

Zero-rated is not the same as exempt

Both mean the customer pays no VAT, but they behave differently. A zero-rated supply is taxable at 0%, so you still reclaim the VAT on the costs behind it. An exempt supply, such as certain financial or health services, carries no VAT and blocks you from reclaiming that input VAT. The distinction decides how much you can recover, so it is worth getting right.

The net, VAT and gross update instantly. Nothing you type leaves your browser.

The standard Cyprus VAT rate is 19%. Reduced rates of 9% and 5% apply to specific goods and services, and some supplies are zero-rated at 0%.
Switch the mode to gross. The calculator divides by 1 plus the rate to find the net figure, then shows the VAT element. For 19% it divides the gross by 1.19.
19% covers most goods and services. 9% applies to areas such as restaurants, hotels and passenger transport; 5% to items like foodstuffs, medicines and books. Check your specific supply, as this is a quick calculator rather than tax advice.
No. Zero-rated supplies are taxable at 0% and still let you reclaim input VAT on your costs. Exempt supplies carry no VAT and do not let you reclaim the VAT behind them.
Often the reverse charge applies, so you do not add Cyprus VAT and the customer accounts for it. It depends on what you supply and the customer's VAT status. Use the reverse-charge checker to be sure.
VAT rates are set by law and can change. The figures here are the Cyprus rates as of 2026. For a filing-ready figure, always confirm the current rate for your supply.
