VAT rates in the Gulf

The formulas

Adding VAT: VAT = amount × rate ÷ 100, and total = amount + VAT.

Removing VAT: amount before VAT = total ÷ (1 + rate ÷ 100), and VAT = total − amount before VAT.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add 15% VAT to a price?

Multiply the price by 1.15. For example SAR 200 before VAT becomes SAR 230: SAR 200 plus SAR 30 VAT.

How do I remove VAT from a price that includes it?

Divide the price by 1 plus the rate. For 15%, divide by 1.15: SAR 230 including VAT is SAR 200 before VAT, of which SAR 30 is VAT. Taking 15% off SAR 230 (SAR 34.50) would be wrong.

What is the VAT rate in each Gulf country?

Saudi Arabia 15%, Bahrain 10%, UAE 5% and Oman 5%. Qatar and Kuwait do not have VAT yet.

How is the VAT rounded?

To the nearest halala or fils (two decimals), and to three decimals for Bahraini dinars and Omani rials. The amount before VAT plus the VAT always equals the total.
