This guidance note provides an overview of several important issues associated with VAT grouping, including an anti-avoidance reverse charge for services bought in from overseas VAT group members and HMRC’s ‘protection of the revenue’ powers.

For an overview of VAT grouping an divisional registration generally, see the VAT group and divisional registration ― overview guidance note.

VAT groups and partial exemption

As a VAT group is broadly treated as a single person for VAT purposes, the VAT group will be partly exempt if any of the members incur input tax that relates to the provision of exempt supplies. For details of partial exemption, see the Partial exemption ― overview guidance note. This also means that the partial exemption de minimis limits apply on a VAT group-wide basis (and not to individual members).
