The formulas
- Add VAT: price × (1 + rate). At 19%: 100 × 1.19 = 119.
- Remove VAT: price ÷ (1 + rate). At 19%: 119 ÷ 1.19 = 100.
- VAT inside a price: price − price ÷ (1 + rate). At 19%: 119 − 100 = 19.

No. It has each country’s standard rate. Reduced rates for food, books, medicines, hotels and other goods differ from country to country; choose “Other rate” and type the rate that applies.
Which country’s VAT do I charge when I sell online to another EU country?
For sales of goods and digital services to consumers in another EU country, VAT is usually due at the buyer’s country rate once your cross-border sales pass €10,000 a year, and is declared through the One-Stop Shop (OSS). Sales between VAT-registered businesses usually use the reverse charge. Check with an accountant for your case.
