New Standard VAT Rate – 21.5% from 1st December 2008
The new Value Added Tax standard rate comes into force today – the 1st of December 2008.
Budget 2009 brought in the rate change which involves an increase in the standard rate of VAT from 21% to 21.5%. Services subject to VAT at 13.5% are not affected by the change.
VAT invoices issued should now show the 21.5% rate (after December 1st) and the 21.5% rate should be applied even if services have been provided before the vat change date.
To help give you an idea of how the standard Vat rate increase will affect you currently – Nolan & Associates have updated their VAT Calculator which is available in the tools section at http://www.nolanassociates.com.
