Company No. 14434403 | VAT Registration No. GB 428751770

As a UK-registered business, we handle Value Added Tax (VAT) in compliance with HMRC regulations.

1. VAT on Prices
   • All prices displayed or quoted on our website and communications are exclusive of VAT unless explicitly stated otherwise.
   • VAT at the standard UK rate (currently 20%) will be added to the final invoice for applicable goods and services supplied within the UK.
   • Custom conversions, modifications, accessories, and most rental services are standard-rated at 20% VAT.
     
     
2. Zero-Rated or Exempt Supplies Certain supplies may qualify for zero-rating or exemption (e.g., certain exports outside the UK or specific qualifying installations). Eligibility will be assessed case-by-case and confirmed in your quote/invoice.
   
   
3. International / Export Customers
   • For customers outside the UK (including EU post-Brexit), we may supply goods VAT-free under zero-rating rules for exports, subject to proof of export (e.g., customs documentation).
   • You are responsible for any import duties, VAT, or taxes in your country. We do not collect or remit foreign sales taxes.
     
     
4. VAT Invoices All invoices include our full VAT registration number and breakdown of VAT charged. Valid VAT invoices are provided for all transactions to support your VAT reclaim (where eligible).
   
   
5. VAT Registration Verification If you are VAT-registered in the UK and purchasing for business use, please provide your VAT number at the time of order for potential zero-rating (subject to validation).
