Revetal is a regional centre of trade and service, as well as some industry. The village was the administrative centre of the old Re Municipality which existed until it was merged into Tønsberg Municipality.

Over the years, the villages of Revetal and Bergsåsen have grown together due to conurbation. Statistics Norway considers them to be one urban area.
