VAT Relief - Information and Exemption Forms

Most items on Amplified Telephones.co.uk are available zero rated and therefore free from VAT (Value Added Tax) at the current rate of 20%. The product description will normally state whether the product is available free from VAT, but if there is any doubt or you would like to check its availability for exemption, please contact our Customer Care Team on 020 7501 1101 who will check the availability of the item as a potentially zero-rated product.

Claiming VAT Relief Prior to Placing Your Order

If you are eligible for VAT relief (see below for more details), you can claim VAT relief prior to placing your order. To do this, please follow the steps outlined below.

Step One: Select Your Product(s)

To start off, simply add whichever products you are interested in buying to your shopping basket. While not all of our products are available with VAT relief, the majority are.

Step Two: Choose VAT Relief on the Basket Page

Once you are happy that you have everything that you need, you can proceed to the Shopping Basket. In the basket, underneath the name of applicable products, there is a tick-box that allows you to claim VAT relief (please see the example below). Once this box has been selected, the VAT will automatically be removed from your order.

IMPORTANT: If you are buying multiple items, please be aware that you will have to select the VAT relief checkbox for each separate item.

Step Three: Fill in Your VAT Relief Form

Once you have selected your products and confirmed that you would like VAT relief, you can now continue to the checkout. After entering your personal and delivery details on the first page of the checkout, you will then be directed to a page featuring a form to complete in order to claim VAT relief. Once this form is completed, simply continue to the payment page and place your order (please note this process may differ when checking out via PayPal).

IMPORTANT: Please take care when completing the VAT form, as errors or missed fields can delay the dispatch of your order.

How Will the VAT Be Refunded?

When purchasing the goods from our website, www.amplifiedtelephones.co.uk, the full amount including VAT will be charged unless you have claimed VAT relief when placing your order (please see above). If you wish to claim back VAT after placing an order, please complete and return the VAT Relief form to us at your convenience. As soon as we receive the form, we will process the information, and a refund of the 20% VAT that you have been charged will be automatically refunded to your account. This is normally processed within 3 business days.

If you have any queries about the refund, or the amount to be refunded, please contact our Customer Care Team on 020 7501 1101. They will be happy to assist you with any queries or questions you may have.

How Much Will Be Refunded?

The full 20% VAT will be refunded on the item, subject to a completed and eligible VAT Relief Form. The refund will be calculated as follows:

Example 1: An item is £120.00 on our website (inclusive of VAT) – this is the purchase price for that item. This £120.00 is calculated as the price of the item exclusive of VAT (£100.00) plus 20% VAT, bringing the VAT inclusive total of the item to £120.00.

Once we receive your VAT Relief Form, we will refund you the difference between the price inclusive of VAT, and the price exclusive of VAT: £120.00 - £100.00 = £20.00. We will therefore deduct (or refund) £20.00 (the 20% VAT that was paid on the item). 

Example 2: An item is £100 on our website (inclusive of VAT). This £100 is calculated as the price of the item exclusive of VAT (£83.33) plus 20% VAT, bringing the VAT inclusive total of the item to £100.

If you claim VAT relief prior to placing your order we will deduct £16.77 from your order total. If you claim back VAT after placing your order, we will refund you £16.77.
