VAT tax - UK
I realise this is like our GST and isn't applied to us when we buy from the UK or EU but if a business isn't registered for VAT in Britain do we
have to pay it?
Received a quote for parts from a reputable supplier and he says his prices are inclusive of VAT as he isn't registered and has quoted me including
VAT even though i'm in Australia, makes a big difference if 19% gets knocked off the price, especially with exchange rate!
Any poms out there can you help?
Cheers
Shaun

As you reside outside the Eu then you technically don't have to pay VAT its totally down to the sellers discretion..
i would question there decision and try to get them to drop it..
VAT isn't there money its the governments no different to GST so has no affect on them and isn't making them anymore by charging it to you..

Just this morning I received a list of prices from a UK company for parts I was interested in, it specifically shows NO TAX.
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross a road without being asked for it's motive!

In Australia, you have to be registered to eliminate the GST so I imagine the UK would be the same. If he is not registered, then he is not
registered.
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.
Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!
