You must be sure of your eligibility for VAT relief before completing the declaration.
Section 39.2 of the VAT Act 1983 provides for severe penalties for anyone who makes use of a document which they know to be false for the purposes of obtaining VAT relief.

The VAT relief does not apply to the posting and packaging charges.
We retain the completed form for presentation to the VAT office only. It will not be used for any other purpose. Certain items for incontinence are zero-rated for VAT .These products differ from those products such as mobility/disability products which require a signed declaration of VAT eligibility by the customer for presentation to HM Customs and Excise.
This move has been taken by Customs and Excise to help improve accessibility to these products. However various conditions apply:- The customer must be living in their own home. Supplies to 'institutions' i.e. nursing homes, hospitals and the NHS are NOT eligible to zero-rating on these goods
- Bed protection items are NOT eligible for VAT relief
- Where any of the following purchases are made, a signed declaration MUST be obtained from the customer:
- more than 200 disposable pads
- more than 50 washable pads
- more than 5 collecting devices (e.g. urinals)
- more than 10 pairs of waterproof or leak proof underwear
- We will not process an order which exceeds these quantities without a valid exemption
