About the Nepal VAT calculator
Value Added Tax (VAT) is the principal indirect tax in Nepal, charged on most goods and services at a standard rate of 13%. This calculator works in both directions: it adds VAT to a net figure when you are raising an invoice, and it extracts the VAT already contained in a gross price when you need the taxable base. It is handy for shopkeepers, freelancers, contractors, restaurants and anyone who has to quote or reconcile a VAT-inclusive amount for customers or the tax office.
Adding VAT vs removing VAT
Adding VAT is straightforward: multiply the VAT-exclusive amount by 1.13, because the net price is 100% and the tax adds 13% on top. Removing VAT is the reverse, and it is where most mistakes happen — you cannot simply subtract 13%, because the tax was charged on the smaller, tax-exclusive amount. Instead, divide the inclusive figure by 1.13. On Rs 11,300 inclusive, the tax is Rs 1,300, not Rs 1,469.
When VAT applies
Registered businesses charge VAT on taxable supplies and file periodic returns with the Inland Revenue Department, offsetting input VAT against output VAT. Some items are exempt or zero-rated, and exports are generally zero-rated. Always confirm the treatment of a specific item with the IRD or your auditor before treating a figure as final.
