How kdv (vat) in Türkiye is calculated

The rates are not in the VAT code. They are fixed by a **presidential decree** — the Karar on determining VAT rates, first published in the Resmî Gazete in 2007 and amended since — which GIB publishes as a consolidated document. MADDE 1 sets %20 for taxable transactions not in the attached lists, %1 for list (I) and %10 for list (II).

The current figures are recent and the change was large. **Cumhurbaşkanı Kararı 7346 raised the general rate from %18 to %20 and the middle rate from %8 to %10 with effect from 10 July 2023.** The %1 band on basic food was left alone. So guidance written before that date is wrong by two percentage points on both of the rates most invoices use — which is a bigger error than it sounds, because %18 is still the figure many people remember.

Which rate applies is decided by whether the supply appears in the attached (I) or (II) list, not by a general principle, so the labels here give the authority’s own examples rather than reproducing lists that run to hundreds of entries. This page covers the **rate schedule only**: Turkey’s registration rule is not in this decree, so no threshold is published here.

Frequently asked questions

What are the VAT rates in Türkiye?

%20 is the general rate, with %10 for goods and services in the attached list (II) — textiles, ready-made clothing, health, education, cinema and hotel accommodation — and %1 for list (I), mainly basic food and agricultural inputs.

How much KDV is on 100 TRY?

20.00 TRY at the general rate, for 120.00 TRY gross. At %10 it is 10.00 TRY and at %1 it is 1.00 TRY.

Is the Turkish VAT rate still %18?

No. It rose from %18 to %20 on 10 July 2023 by Cumhurbaşkanı Kararı 7346, and the middle rate rose from %8 to %10 at the same time. Only the %1 band was unchanged.

How do I remove KDV from a gross price?

Divide by 1.20 at the general rate: a 120.00 TRY gross price is 100.00 TRY net plus 20.00 TRY KDV. Switch the calculator to "remove" and it does this for whichever rate you pick.
