How to calculate VAT in Romania
Adding VAT to a net price
VAT = net × 21 / 100
Gross = net × 1.21
Removing VAT from a gross price
Net = gross / 1.21
VAT = gross − net
Remember that the tax share of a gross price is smaller than the rate itself: at 21% it is 17.36%. That is why you divide by 1.21 rather than subtracting 21%.
