VAT and Claims

Outcome Plan Claims (prepared by agent or with specialist input) and Actual Cost Capital Claims

If your business is VAT registered, you may only claim grant assistance for the cost, net of VAT.

If your business is not VAT registered, grant assistance can be paid on the total cost, inclusive of VAT.

It is your own responsibility to ascertain what VAT costs can be reclaimed. You are advised to discuss this with your accountant prior to submitting a claim.

It is in your own interest to submit proof from HMRC of your VAT registration status along with any claim which includes VAT. If you do not we will be unable to process your claim until we receive a correctly completed VAT Registration Status Declaration Form.


Standard Cost Capital Claims and Annual Recurrent Claims

Standard costs remain the same regardless of your VAT registration status. Your claim should be for the number of units agreed and completed, and the calculation will be made automatically for you.
