Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which come into force on 16th April 2003, further amend the Value Added Tax Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/2518) (“the principal Regulations”).
Regulation 3 amends regulation 29(2) of the principal Regulations to clarify that there is no right to deduct input tax without a valid invoice unless the Commissioners direct that other evidence of the charge to VAT can support the claim. Such evidence is no longer confined to that contained in documents.
