VAT

VAT at 17.5% is charged on most goods and services within the UK and is usually incorporated within the price on display. VAT is administered nationally by H.M Customs & Excise . There are no local sales taxes in the UK.

VAT is not charged on certain items such as food (except in a restaurant), books, public transport and children's clothes. However businesses with a turnover of less than £52,000 per annum do not have to charge VAT for their goods or services.

Self employed people can reclaim VAT paid on goods and services bought for business use provided they themselves are registered for VAT.

If you are a citizen of a country other than a member of the European Union and you visit the UK you can reclaim a substantial proportion of VAT that you paid back from Customs & Excise.
