VAT Exemption for Diabetes Patients [TEST]

You have added a product to your cart which has qualified for VAT exemption.

In order to purchase the product at this price you need to read and confirm if you meet the below qualifying criteria.

Diabetes patients are eligible for VAT exemption on certain products, and here at Diabetic Supply we are keen to pass these on correctly. 

We do not set the rules as we would love to have all the products we sell exempt to our community but have identified products which qualify and sell them at the checkout with a 20% reduction... well worth the effort!

In order to do this you will need to complete the form below and submit it to us if you are eligible. This will apply VAT exemption to this, and future purchases using your customer account.

Please read the declaration carefully and ensure you make the correct declaration

 

[shortcode][note-to-customer]Note to customer

You should complete this declaration if you are ‘chronically sick or disabled’ and the goods or services are for your own personal or domestic use. A family member or carer can complete this on your behalf if you wish.

You can find out more from the Helpsheets on the GOV.UK website on VAT notice 701/7 or by telephoning the VAT Disabled Reliefs Helpline on Telephone: 0300 123 1073. HMRC staff cannot advise whether or not an individual is chronically sick or disabled.

A person is ‘chronically sick or disabled’ if he or she is a person:
· With a physical or mental impairment which has a long term and substantial adverse effect upon his or her ability to carry out everyday activities
· With a condition which the medical profession treats as a chronic sickness

It does not include an elderly person who is not disabled or chronically sick or any person who is only temporarily disabled or incapacitated, such as with a broken limb.

If you are unsure, you should seek guidance from your GP or other medical professional. Please give this completed form back to the supplier. They will keep it with their VAT records. Please do not send it to HMRC.[/note-to-customer][/shortcode]
