VAT Calculator
Professional VAT calculator with multi-row entries, country-specific rates, and visual summaries. Supports Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, UK, and Spain with accurate VAT calculations, real-time validation, and export functionality.
Overview
This VAT calculator handles multi-row entries so you can calculate tax across an entire invoice in one pass rather than item by item. Select from six European countries — Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, UK, or Spain — and the correct standard and reduced rates load automatically; you can also enter any custom rate for edge cases. Every calculation happens entirely inside your browser: no figures are transmitted to a server, which matters when you're working with real invoice amounts or client data. The result is a live breakdown table plus a visual chart you can export or copy to clipboard for use in accounting software or reports.
