Buy eligible mobility equipment without paying VAT. If you have a disability or long-term illness, you may be able to buy certain mobility products VAT-free. At A6 Mobility Shop, we can explain the eligibility rules and help you complete the declaration required for qualifying purchases.
Eligible equipment can be VAT-free
Subject to eligibility and HMRC rules. We will check before you buy.
You may qualify if you are chronically sick or disabled, including if you have a physical or mental impairment with a substantial, long-term effect on everyday activities, or a terminal illness. The equipment must be for your personal or domestic use and meet the relevant HMRC rules.
You do not need to be registered as disabled or receive disability benefits.
Being over 60, on its own, or having a temporary injury does not qualify you for disability VAT relief.
VAT relief depends on both the customer and the product. Examples that may qualify include:
Not every mobility aid, replacement battery or service is automatically VAT-free. We will check the applicable rules for the item or work you need.
Choose the equipment you need and ask us whether it qualifies.
Tell us if you meet the eligibility requirements.
Complete a simple VAT-relief declaration for the purchase.
Where the conditions are met, we apply the appropriate VAT treatment to your price.
You will not normally need a doctor's letter, Blue Badge or benefits paperwork simply to claim relief. The declaration should accurately reflect your circumstances.
Our mobility scooter prices are generally shown excluding VAT because many customers qualify for relief. If you do not qualify, VAT may be added.
We will confirm the final price and applicable VAT before purchase.
Yes. A family member, friend or carer can arrange a purchase for an eligible person, provided the product and intended use meet HMRC's conditions.
Ask us how to complete the declaration correctly.
If you are unsure whether your circumstances or chosen equipment qualify, call us on 0161 429 6000 or visit our Stockport showroom. We can explain the process before you buy.
