Tax Guide for Small Businesses (2020/2021) 57 Some of the basic food items above are subject to specific conditions as set out in the relevant item descriptions in Part B of Schedule 2 to the VAT Act. Certain agricultural products such as animal feed, seedlings and fertilisers which are for use in farming enterprises are also currently zero-rated when supplied to VAT registered farmers. The VAT Act has, however, been amended to remove this zero rating with effect from a future date to be determined by the Minister of Finance by way of a notice in the Government Gazette. 67 The effect of applying the zero rate means that the purchaser does not pay any VAT to the vendor making the supply. However, as zero-rated supplies are regarded as taxable supplies, it means that the VAT incurred on the acquisition of goods or services by the vendor to make those zero-rated supplies may generally be deducted as input tax, subject to the required documentary proof (for example a valid tax invoice) being held. For more information on zero-rated supplies see the VAT 404 – Guide for Vendors. Download 0.78 Mb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
