How the Auction Fee Calculator UK Works
The Auction Fee Calculator UK uses the same structure used by most UK auction houses:
- Hammer price – the winning bid
- VAT on hammer – depends on VAT status
- Auction fee percentage – charged on the hammer
- VAT on the auction fee – applied to the fee only
Example: Hammer £5,000 + VAT £1,000 + Fee £1,000 + Fee VAT £200 = £7,200 total.
