How to calculate VAT in Guinea
Adding VAT to a net price
VAT = net × 18 / 100
Gross = net × 1.18
Removing VAT from a gross price
Net = gross / 1.18
VAT = gross − net
Do not subtract 18% from the total to find the net price — divide by 1.18 instead. Subtracting the percentage removes too much, because VAT is only 15.25% of the gross amount.
