Our professional online calculator provides instant, accurate results whether you need to add KDV to a net amount or remove KDV (reverse calculation) from a gross price.

How to Calculate

How to Calculate KDV in Turkey


Calculating KDV in Turkey involves two primary operations: adding KDV to a net amount and removing KDV from a gross amount. Here's how each calculation works:


Adding KDV (Net to Gross)


When you have a net price (excluding KDV) and need to calculate the final price including KDV:


Formula: Gross Amount = Net Amount x (1 + 20/100)

Multiplier: 1.2000


Example Calculation:

  • Net Amount: 100.00
  • KDV Rate: 20%
  • KDV Amount: 100.00 x 20/100 = 20.00
  • Gross Amount: 100.00 + 20.00 = 120.00

    • Removing KDV (Gross to Net) - Reverse Calculation


    When you have a gross price (including KDV) and need to extract the net amount and KDV:


    Formula: Net Amount = Gross Amount / (1 + 20/100)

    Divider: 1.2000


    Example Calculation:

  • Gross Amount: 120.00
  • KDV Rate: 20%
  • Net Amount: 120.00 / 1.2000 = 100.00
  • KDV Amount: 120.00 - 100.00 = 20.00
