In October 2023, HMRC announced that the 31 October 2023 deadline for the end of the VAT margin scheme for second hand vehicles moved from Great Britain (“GB”) to Northern Ireland (“NI”) prior to 1 May 2023 was being extended to 30 April 2024. This six-month extension followed extensive lobbying from Chartered Accountants Ireland in September and October 2023. We are now issuing a reminder that the extended deadline of 30 April 2024 is in just over two and half months.
This means that any vehicles moved from GB to NI prior to 1 May 2023 but sold after 30 April 2024 will require output VAT to be charged on the full selling price, and not on the margin. Businesses affected should check how such stock is selling – please contact us to discuss if this vehicle stock continues to be slow-moving.
