Are you a professional who knows how much you really want to take home? This Excel sheet works the usual process backwards: enter the net amount you want to receive and get the taxable amount to show on your invoice, with pension-fund contribution, VAT, withholding tax and exempt amounts already worked out. No more trial and error. The sheet follows Italian invoicing rules and its labels are in Italian.

Net to receive €30.00, exempt amounts €10.00, VAT 22%, withholding 20%, pension fund 4% (purely illustrative figures):
| Taxable amount | 18.71 |
| + Pension fund 4% | 0.75 |
| VAT base | 19.46 |
| + VAT 22% | 4.28 |
| + Exempt amounts | 10.00 |
| Invoice total | 33.74 |
| − Withholding tax 20% | 3.74 |
| Net paid to the professional | 30.00 |
The net comes back to €30.00 to the cent. The tool is a calculation aid: always check the pension-fund, surcharge and withholding treatment that applies to your case. It does not replace tax advice.
For anyone who issues fee invoices and wants to start from the amount they really intend to receive instead of calculating backwards: freelance professionals, firms and the staff who support them.
Nothing to redo: withholding tax and pension-fund rates are data you enter in the yellow cells. If an item does not apply to your case, set it to zero.
After paying with PayPal you receive the Excel file (.xlsx) by email as an attachment.
