How VAT Works In Botswana (2025)
Understanding VAT Calculations
- Adding VAT: When you need to add VAT to a price, multiply the base amount by (1 + VAT rate). For Botswana's 12% rate: Amount × 1.12
- Removing VAT: To find the price excluding VAT from a VAT-inclusive price, divide by (1 + VAT rate). For 12%: Amount ÷ 1.12
- VAT Amount: The VAT portion alone is calculated as: (Total Amount × VAT Rate) ÷ (1 + VAT Rate)
Quick Examples
- Add VAT: P100 + 12% VAT = P112.00
- Remove VAT: P112.00 ÷ 1.12 = P100
