Understanding Business VAT Calculations
Output VAT (Sales)
- Standard Rate (16%): Applied to most goods and services
- Zero Rate (0%): Applied to exports and exempt supplies
- Calculation: Sales Amount × VAT Rate
- Due to ZRA: Output VAT must be paid to tax authority
Input VAT (Purchases)
- Claimable: VAT paid on business purchases
- Credit System: Can be offset against output VAT
- Requirements: Valid tax invoices required
- Business Use: Must be for taxable business activities
✓ VAT Payable (Positive Net VAT)
When Output VAT > Input VAT, you owe money to ZRA. This amount must be paid by the VAT return due date.
✓ VAT Refund (Negative Net VAT)
When Input VAT > Output VAT, ZRA owes you a refund. You can apply for refund or carry forward to next period.
