RichS Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Just ordered a small quantity of geotextile membrane. As the order is of low value I have to pay the postage of £10.00. The invoice shows this amount lumped in with the goods, and then VAT on the lot. I am thinking that for my paperwork I should remove the postage VAT element (£2.00) , anyone agree or otherwise??

Jeremy Harris Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Delivery VAT can go on the reclaim, or at least it did go through on a few dozen of our receipts. AFAIK, you can recover all the VAT on materials, including the cost of delivery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragg987 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Yes the delivery is a permitted VAT reclaim provided it is listed on the same invoice as the materials. If a separate invoice it is not claimable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You use the word haulage. Do you know if any of these words can be used instead of 'delivery' when reclaiming VAT? transport haulage carriage freight We have receipts with these words in place of delivery.

Temp Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) I don't think it matters what it's called, just if its on the same invoice as the materials or separate. Previous thread.. Edited November 3, 2017 by Temp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Also found this.. https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/vat-construction/vconst24400#IDAELEWB HMRC internal manual VAT Construction snip Delivery charges The VAT incurred on delivery charges separately itemised on main invoices for eligible goods are part of the value of the goods for the purposes of the Scheme and can be refunded. Separate invoices for transport or delivery aren’t eligible for refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
