Home Export What is a VAT-qualifying car

Learn about the advantages VAT-qualifying cars offer for non-UK/EU individuals or businesses importing vehicles, as well as UK-based VAT-registered individuals or businesses.

SO WHAT DOES VAT-QUALIFYING MEAN?

A VAT-qualifying car is a vehicle that has been owned and used exclusively by VAT-registered businesses for commercial purposes or a brand-new car purchased from a main franchiser. If you are a VAT-registered individual or company purchasing the car exclusively for business use or for export outside the UK and EU, you may be eligible to reclaim the 20% VAT from the purchase price. Additionally, if you are exporting the car, you may still benefit from the VAT reduction even if you are not a business, as many export customers are eligible for this benefit.
