Adding 22% VAT (Italy) to your net amount.
How to add 22% VAT
Multiply the net amount by 0.22 to get the VAT, then add it on. For example, 1,000.00 EUR net + 220.00 EUR VAT = 1,220.00 EUR gross.
How to remove VAT from a price
Divide the VAT-inclusive amount by 1.22. For example, 1,000.00 EUR including VAT ÷ 1.22 = 819.67 EUR net, so the VAT is 180.33 EUR. Subtracting 22% of the gross instead would give 780.00 EUR, which understates the net amount. It's the most common VAT mistake.

About VAT in Italy
VAT (value-added tax) is a consumption tax charged at each stage of supply. Businesses add it to their sales and generally reclaim the VAT they pay on their own purchases, so the tax is ultimately borne by the final consumer.
The standard rate in Italy is 22%, charged in EUR. Reduced or zero rates may apply to some goods and services. Use the calculator's custom rate for those, and confirm current rates with the tax authority before you file.
