A worked example

Starting from a net amount of KRW 1,234 at 10%: VAT comes to KRW 123 and the gross amount to KRW 1,357.

Starting from the gross amount of KRW 1,357 at 10%: the net amount is KRW 1,234 and the VAT is KRW 123.

How the result is worked out

From a net amount: tax = net × rate, rounded half up to the smallest unit of the currency (KRW: no decimal places). From a gross amount: tax = gross × rate ÷ (100% + rate) and net = gross − tax, so net and tax always add up to the gross amount.

A withholding or other deduction is worked out on the net amount, or on the amount with tax if you choose that, and taken from the gross amount to give the amount payable. You type its rate yourself; nothing is filled in.

Before you rely on it

Rates and rules change; reduced rates, exemptions and thresholds are not covered here; check with the tax authority or an adviser.
