are flyers vatable ?

Flyers can be zero-rated for VAT (Value Added Tax) or standard-rated, depending on their characteristics. Here’s the breakdown:

Zero-Rated Flyers:

  • Typically consist of a single sheet of paper, maximum size A4 (international standard).
  • Intended for reading purposes, held in hand, not for display.
  • Convey information and are complete (not a part work).
  • Not designed for:
    • Obtaining discounts on goods or services (e.g., “20% off with this flyer”).
    • Admission purposes (e.g., “Bring this flyer for free entry”).
    • Being written on (becomes stationery, usually standard-rated).

Standard-Rated Flyers:

  • Fall outside the zero-rating criteria mentioned above.
  • Examples:
    • Flyers with detachable coupons.
    • Flyers designed to be hung up as posters.
    • Flyers with blank spaces for writing information.

Tips:

  • If you’re unsure about the VAT rating for your flyers, consult with your printer or a tax advisor.
  • Some countries might have different VAT rules for printed materials. It’s best to check the specific regulations in your region.

Remember, VAT regulations can be complex, so these are general guidelines. Always refer to official sources or consult a professional for accurate information regarding your specific situation.

If that’s it, then flyers should be non-VATable. BUT… it is VATable if:

Leaflets/ flyers have a variety of different uses but most of the time will be zero rated unless they are laminated. HMRC states that to qualify for 0% VAT, the item must be designed to be thrown away after a few reads. Leaflets which are laminated are considered to be designed to keep and therefore are not disposable or zero rated.
