VAT Exemption Form
The University of Oxford is able to exempt certain supplies of goods and services ¹ from VAT when supplied to another eligible body under Group 6 of Schedule 9 of the VAT Act 1994.
To enable us to offer this exemption, please complete the attached form: VAT Exemption form.pdf
- declaring the basis on which your organisation qualifies as an eligible body
- declaring that the purpose the goods/services will be put to is a qualifying purpose
Please return the completed form to events@maths.ox.ac.uk. If the declaration is not completed, the supply will be subject to VAT in full, at the prevailing rate.
All bodies:
May we please draw your attention specifically to the declaration of use i.e. that the goods or services supplied by the University of Oxford will be used in supplies of research or education made by your organisation (i.e. your organisation will be receiving a fee for the research or education activity it undertakes).
Charities and non-profit making bodies:
May we please draw your attention specifically to item 2(f)(ii) declaring that any profits or surpluses made by your organisation from supplies of education or research are applied by your organisation to the continuance of such supplies.
¹Please note that if you are purchasing catering, any alcohol provided will be charged at the standard-rate of VAT as HMRC do not consider it to be ‘closely related’ to supplies of education.
