How to calculate VAT in Croatia
Adding VAT to a net price
VAT = net × 25 / 100
Gross = net × 1.25
Removing VAT from a gross price
Net = gross / 1.25
VAT = gross − net
Do not subtract 25% from the total to find the net price — divide by 1.25 instead. Subtracting the percentage removes too much, because VAT is only 20.00% of the gross amount.
