EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, which comes into force on 13th April 2006 amends the Value Added Tax (Special Provisions) Order 1995 (S.I. 1995/1268) in relation to finance agreements entered into on or after that date.
Article 4(1)(a) of the Value Added tax (Special Provisions) Order 1995 treats as neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services, the disposal of relevant goods by a person who repossessed them under the terms of a finance agreement, provided certain conditions are met. Relevant goods are works of art, antiques and collector's items and second-hand goods.
Article 3 of this Order introduces an exception to this treatment where the supplier makes an adjustment to the consideration accounted for on the original sale, whether that adjustment is required to be made under regulation 38 of the Value Added Tax Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/2518) or is made in any other way.
Article 3 of this Order also limits the application of this exception to agreements where the goods delivered under those agreements are delivered on or after 1st September 2006.
Article 4 defines what is a finance agreement for the purposes of this Order.
A full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of business is available from H M Revenue and Customs, 100 Parliament Street, London SW1A 2BQ.
