About this market

Market context

Indirect Tax in the United Kingdom primarily refers to Value Added Tax (VAT), a consumption tax levied on most goods and services. It is collected at each stage of the supply chain, with businesses able to reclaim VAT paid on purchases against VAT charged to customers.

The standard VAT rate in the UK is 20%, with reduced rates (5%) for certain goods and services like domestic fuel and power, and zero-rated items (0%) such as most food, children's clothes, and books. Businesses must register for VAT if their taxable turnover exceeds the threshold (£90,000 as of 1 April 2024), filing returns, typically quarterly or monthly, with HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). Post-Brexit, new customs rules and import VAT procedures (e.g., Postponed Import VAT Accounting) are critical considerations for businesses trading with the EU and globally.
