This area covers reclaiming VAT on business expenses when the VAT charged cannot be recovered in full. It includes input tax recovery, partial exemption issues, and challenges to HM Revenue & Customs decisions on VAT recovery, refunds, or adjustments. A solicitor in this field drafts and negotiates claims, advises on documentation and substantiation, and handles disputes with HMRC through the VAT return process and, if needed, appeals.
