What is the IVA rate in Chile?

Chile applies a single flat IVA (Impuesto al Valor Agregado) rate of 19% to virtually all goods and services. There are no reduced rates, which keeps the calculation simple.

How do I remove IVA from a Chilean gross price?

Divide the gross (bruto) amount by 1.19. The result is the net (neto) price, and the difference between gross and net is the 19% IVA contained in the price.

Are there reduced IVA rates in Chile?

No. Unlike many countries, Chile has no general reduced IVA rate — the 19% rate applies broadly. Specific additional taxes (impuestos adicionales) apply to items like alcohol and luxury goods on top of IVA.

What is the difference between a boleta and a factura?

A boleta is issued to final consumers and usually shows the IVA-inclusive price, while a factura is issued between businesses and itemises the neto and the IVA separately so the buyer can claim the credit fiscal.

Chile IVA Calculator

Chile applies a single, flat IVA (Impuesto al Valor Agregado) of 19% to almost all goods and services — there are no general reduced rates. This calculator adds 19% IVA to a net (neto) price or extracts the IVA contained in a gross (bruto) price, giving the full neto / IVA / bruto breakdown for boletas and facturas electrónicas in the SII system.

How it works

Choose a direction:

Add IVA: bruto = neto × 1.19. The IVA is neto × 0.19.
Remove IVA: neto = bruto ÷ 1.19. The included IVA is bruto − neto.

Because the rate is flat, the maths is consistent across all categories. Some products carry extra impuestos adicionales (alcohol, tobacco, luxury goods) on top of the 19% IVA — those are separate and not part of this calculation.

Example

Add 19% IVA to a $10,000 neto price:

IVA = 10,000 × 0.19 = $1,900.00
Bruto = $11,900.00

To remove 19% IVA from an $11,900 bruto price: 11,900 ÷ 1.19 = $10,000.00 neto, with $1,900.00 IVA included.

Notes

A factura between businesses splits neto and IVA so the buyer can claim the crédito fiscal, while a boleta to a consumer typically shows the IVA-inclusive total. For guidance only — not tax advice. The tool runs entirely in your browser; no amounts or personal data are transmitted.
