Denmark VAT calculator
Type an amount into any of the three boxes; the other two follow at the rate you pick.
VAT = 100.00 × 25% = 25.00; gross = 100.00 + 25.00 = 125.00
Worked in whole cents: the tax is rounded to the nearest cent (half a cent goes up) and the other amount is the difference, so the boxes always add up. From a gross amount the tax is gross × rate ÷ (100 + rate); from a typed tax amount the net is worked back and your tax amount stays as typed. Your tax authority may set its own rounding rules for invoices.

| Rate | Tax share of a gross price | Net 100 → tax / gross | Net 1,000 → tax / gross | Gross 100 → tax / net | Gross 1,000 → tax / net |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25% standard | 25/125 ≈ 20% | 25.00 / 125.00 | 250.00 / 1,250.00 | 20.00 / 80.00 | 200.00 / 800.00 |
