How Much VAT? by Tenfold

Is there VAT on estate agent or property printing?

Some of it. It depends on the item, not the occasion, so one job can have both rates on the same invoice.

Brochures 0%

Brochures are zero-rated. Several sheets of reading matter folded or fastened together, even if it's all advertising.

Leaflets 0%

Leaflets are zero-rated. A sheet you pick up, read and bin (or one that comes with a product) is exactly what the zero rate is for.

Signs and boards 20%

The zero rate only covers paper and card. Fabric, vinyl, PVC, foamboard and the like are standard-rated.

Folders ?

Most folders are standard-rated. A folder can be zero-rated if it's really a brochure, carrying a good amount of information in its own right.

Business cards 20%

Cards made to be kept, sent or used in their own right aren't leaflets, so they're standard-rated.

Architectural and engineering plans 20%

Plans and drawings for architectural, engineering or commercial use are specifically excluded from the zero rate.

Posters 20%

Anything made to go on a wall or be displayed is standard-rated. The zero rate is for things you hold and read.
