Claiming VAT Relief

Individuals who are chronically sick or disabled can claim VAT Relief on those products shown with "without VAT" prices. A person is 'chronically sick or disabled' if they:

• Have a physical or mental impairment that has a long-term affect on their ability to carry out everyday activities
• Have a condition that doctors treat as a chronic sickness (like diabetes, for example)

OR

• Are terminally ill

The following conditions may also qualify for VAT Relief in some circumstances; Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Oedema, Heart Disease, Stroke.

A person with a temporary injury like a broken leg would not qualify, nor would a frail older person who is otherwise well and non-disabled.

If you are not sure please ask your medical advisor, as we are not able to give medical opinions.

By completing our on-line VAT Relief declaration you are agreeing to these terms and conditions and that you are claiming relief from Value Added Tax under Group 12 of Schedule 8 to the Value Added Tax Act of 1994.
