Question: Value Added Tax Refund on hotels in UK?

Wow, that’s a nice size tax for the UK Government.

Can I get a VAT Return on hotels and things I buy in the shops?

If so, how do I do that?

Cheers,

-Rob

Answer: You can only reclain the VAT on things you take out of the UK which you have not used. As you can’t take out a hotel room, you can’t reclaim the VAT.
For goods, you can’t open the packing or use them while you are here. You must buy from a store which operates the VAT scheme. These often have minimum purchases (£50). You need to fill in the form the store gives you and then show that and the goods to the VAT reclaim desk at the airport.

Uk Tax Refund How Long

Uk Tax Refund How Long

Question: I worked in the UK for 3 months. I am now leaving the UK,how can I claim the taxes back?How long will it take?

I have just left my job in the UK, I worked there for 3 months and since I had no P45 I was put in emergency tax code paying too many taxes. Now I am leaving permanently the UK and want to claim all the taxes back. What should I do? Can I have before the overpaid taxes back and afterwards the rest of them? How long will it take? And by which means will I have the refund?

Answer: You should fill in form P85 and attch parts 2 & 3 of your P45 from your employer. If you did not fill in the P86 when your arrived in the UK, you should do that aswell.

Your tax office can then review your records and see if you have overpaid any tax. You will only get a refund of any overpaid tax, not necessarily the total amount.

It is impossible to say how long it will take. Things are dealt with in date order so it depends how much work there is in your tax office.

You have to state how you want any repayment sending to you on the P85. You can give a UK bank account or it can be sent to any address.
