The UK standard VAT rate is 20% for most goods and services. A reduced rate of 5% applies to certain home energy and children's car seats, while a 0% zero rate applies to books, basic food, and public transport.
To remove 20% VAT from a gross price, divide the total gross amount by 1.20 to find the net price, then subtract the net price from the gross total to determine the VAT.
Businesses must register with HMRC if their taxable VAT turnover exceeds the rolling 12-month registration threshold (currently £90,000).
