VAT support and guidance

If you raise purchase orders or collect income on behalf of your school VAT can be complicated, but support is available to help you get it right.

If you’re unsure which VAT code to use, check VAT and tax guidance in the IBC (search for VAT). There is also information available on the schools’ intranet: taxation and VAT.

If you still need advice, the Tax Team in the IBC can help. 

Raise an enquiry and select:

  • Type: Income and Customer or Shopping and Suppliers
  • Sub‑type: Business Tax – Enquiries – VAT, CIS & Stamp Duty

Getting VAT codes right is important and it is always better to ask for advice than to guess.
