Introduction
The Albania Reverse VAT Calculator provides quick VAT calculations and, optionally, a detailed VAT table which includes multiple VAT entries and calculations. VAT is calculated as a percentage of the total sale price at the point of sale, this amount is then deducted to provide the value of the goods (if you wish to add VAT to the value of the goods, please use the VAT Calculator for Albania). The quick reverse VAT calculation is for those who wish to calculate how much VAT is added to a specific product or service. The advanced calculator option includes the same calculation overview and, in addition, produces a table of VAT transactions with details on the VAT amount for each product/service and the total cost of the goods/services before and after VAT is applied.

Reverse VAT Formula for Albania
As we mentioned in the introduction, "VAT is calculated as a percentage of the value of the goods at the point of sale, this amount is then added to provide the total sale price". VAT is therefore a transactional tax as the tax is only incurred at the point of sale, this is the same for goods and services. If we consider the calculation from the perspective of the goods or service, we can define the formula for calculating VAT in Albania as having four components, there are:
- The NET sale amount of the goods/service at the point of sale (a)
- The VAT rate that is applicable to the goods/service (b)
- The amount of VAT that is chargeable on the goods/service (c)
- The GROSS sale amount of the goods/service at the point of sale (d)
You may have noticed that we defined a letter for each of the four components or VAT calculation, this letter is shown in a bracket. We will use this letter to create our reverse VAT formula, using the letters instead of the fully worded VAT component so that our reverse VAT formula is in a nice user friendly format.
Our aim when calculating revrse VAT is to calculate the "the NET sale amount of the goods/service at the point of sale" and the "The amount of VAT that is chargeable on the goods/service", we can do this using the following formula:
You may have noticed that in our formula we divide "the VAT rate that is applicable to the goods/service (b)" by 100, this is to allow us to calculate the written percentage as a mathematical percentage amount. For example, 64% is equal to 0.64 when completing mathematical computations.
Now that we have calculated "The amount of VAT that is chargeable on the goods/service (c)" we can calculate the "The NET sale amount of the goods/service at the point of sale (a)" using the following formula:
As you can see from this very simple formula, we calculate "the NET sale amount of the goods/service at the point of sale (a)" by subtracting "the amount of VAT that is chargeable on the goods/service (c)" from "the GROSS sale amount of the goods/service at the point of sale (d)" that we calculated with the previous reverse VAT formula.
