The law states that if you are registered disabled or chronically ill, you don’t have to pay VAT on products designed or adapted for your own personal or domestic use. You do not need to provide proof or give specific details about your condition from your GP, to us or any other person. By completing a simple declaration form, when placing your order with us, confirming that you are eligible for VAT free goods is all you have to do. Making a false declaration carries a penalty. Products eligible for VAT relief are shown on the website. Please note that not all products are eligible for VAT relief, including postage costs. These are charged at the current rate. Please remember that the Government and not us, decides whether an item is VAT exempt. We do not make any more or less money, if we charge you VAT or don’t charge you VAT. If you do not sign the declaration form, we are obliged to charge you VAT at the prevailing rate.
