Understanding German Umsatzsteuer
Most goods and services in Germany incur Umsatzsteuer (value-added tax). The standard rate is 19%, while reduced rates (7% or temporarily 5%) apply to essential items and cultural goods. Some transactions, such as intra-community supplies, can be taxed at 0%.
Quick Tips
- Use the calculator to double-check invoices before issuing or paying them.
- Switch modes to derive net amounts from gross totals (and vice versa).
- VAT-registered businesses may reclaim input tax (Vorsteuer) on qualifying purchases.
Note: Always verify the correct VAT rate for your goods or services and consult a tax advisor for complex, cross-border, or mixed-rate scenarios.
