How Ireland VAT is calculated
Adding VAT: multiply the net price by 1.23. A EUR 100 item becomes EUR 123.00 once 23% VAT is added.
Removing VAT: divide the VAT-inclusive total by 1.23. From EUR 123.00 inclusive, the net is EUR 100 and the VAT portion is EUR 23.00.
The standard rate is 23%, but reduced or zero rates can apply to particular goods and services. For anything you file or charge, confirm the current rate and rules with the relevant Ireland tax authority.
