Wondering whether you have to pay VAT on new tyres? This quick guide explains how VAT works for tyre purchases in the UK, whether it’s already included in the price, and what that means for drivers. Learn how to find quality tyres at the best possible price with Tyres.co.uk.
VAT is a form of consumption tax, charged at different points in the supply chain journey, as a product makes its way from manufacturing to the end user.
In the UK, VAT is charged on car and vehicle tyres – though this charge tends to be wrapped up in the overall retail price of tyres, because of how the UK economy works. While the USA and other locations around the world add VAT at the point of sale, for UK consumers, any tax is added to the retail price, so buyers pay a clearcut rate.
So, you can rest assured when buying a tyre from a UK supplier or retailer, that VAT has been already added to the advertised price.
