The calculator does the arithmetic. The table below shows what each rate covers.
Which rate is which.
The maths is the same at every rate. Which rate you charge depends on what you sell and who buys it.
- 01To add VAT, multiply the net by the rate to get the VAT, then add the two for the gross.
- 02To take VAT out, divide the gross by one plus the rate. At 19% that means dividing by 1.19. What's left over is the VAT.

Multiply the net price by the rate to get the VAT, then add it for the gross. At 19%, €100 net is €19 VAT and €119 gross. To take VAT out of a gross amount, divide it by 1.19. That gives the net, and the difference is the VAT.
Net is the price before VAT, which most business quotes show. Gross includes VAT, and it's what consumers pay. A Cyprus invoice shows the net, the VAT and the gross separately for each rate, and Sumly's invoices lay it out that way for you.
19% covers most goods and services. The reduced rates of 9%, 5% and 3% cover specific categories, and exports are zero-rated. If a sale could fit more than one rate, check with the Tax Department before you invoice.
For most services, no, as long as the client is VAT-registered in their own country. The sale is reverse-charged, which means the client accounts for the VAT there. You report it on the VIES return, the monthly list of your sales to VAT-registered businesses elsewhere in the EU.
Once your taxable sales pass €15,600 over the last 12 months, or as soon as you expect to pass it within the next 30 days. You can also register earlier by choice. Companies whose clients are VAT-registered businesses often do, so they can reclaim the VAT on their own costs.
Most companies file quarterly, by the 10th of the second month after the quarter ends, and pay the same day. A quarter ending 30 June is due by 10 August. If you sell to EU businesses, the VIES return is monthly, due by the 15th of the next month.
