VAT exemption

To be eligible for VAT relief, your vehicle must be adapted before it is supplied to you. The vehicle itself is not eligible for VAT relief but the adaptations may be zero-rated.

If you adapt your vehicle after purchase, there is no VAT relief for the unadapted vehicle but the cost of the adaptation is eligible for zero-rating.

To obtain VAT zero-rating make sure that:
  • the vehicle seats no more than 12 people (driver and 11 passengers)
  • the vehicle must be adapted to enable you to enter, drive or travel in the vehicle
  • the adapted vehicle must be for your domestic or personal use, not work purposes
  • you must hold documents to show your eligibility.
You can also receive VAT relief on the repair and maintenance of the adapted vehicle.

To apply for VAT relief you will need to provide details of your disbaility and show that the vehicle is for your personal use.

For further information on VAT, and declaration forms, go to HM Customs and Excise Information Service (www.hmce.gov.uk).


Charities

Charities are eligible for VAT exemptions on adapted vehicles if these vehicles are made available to disabled people (for personal or domestic use).

For further information, go to HM Customs and Excise Information Service (www.hmce.gov.uk).
