How to calculate Pernambuco ICMS in 3 steps

  1. Enter your amount. Type the price you are working with — either before tax or tax-inclusive, depending on what you have.
  2. Pick the rate and direction. The 20.5% standard internal rate is pre-filled and editable; choose “Add tax” or “Remove tax”.
  3. Read the split instantly. You get the net amount, the exact tax, and the gross total — ready to quote, invoice, or check a receipt against.

Why getting the Pernambuco split right matters

Tax is the part of the price most people get wrong, because the headline rate is rarely the whole story: in Brazil the internal rate differs by state, interstate sales use different rates, and tax substitution (ICMS-ST) changes who pays on some goods. This calculator starts from the general internal rate — and if your item qualifies for a different treatment, type that rate in and it calculates it instead.
