Imperfection Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Are shotgun cartridges liable to VAT? Cartridge prices in my local gunshop havent changed since VAT was reduced to 15% and was wondering whether they were exempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 I believe cartridges are liable to VAT. The savings should be passed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
