You will get a receipt.....it's just they are a bit slow sending them out sometimes, but just try sending your fees in a bit late!

a rate sheet should be in the public domain and available off the councils website...free |

good question if the authority is vat regd (and youd have to assume they would be to claim back all their output vat) then they cant charge you WITHOUT adding vat, unless badge/plate fees are vat exempt, which i cant see HMRC allowing has anyone got a recent receipt/invoice for a badge/plate/ops licence?....have a look my driver application clearly has stated "medical - £95.52 + £16.68 vat" if im being charged vat its illegal NOT to issue a vat receipt if i ask for one the theory+knowledge test was £25 (no mention of vat), 10 of us, thats £250 with 1 council guy for the hour, dont tell me there was no profit in that? 1 test day a month = £3000 a year..... |

curioser and curisoer i had an "official reciept" for my badge fee £248 its not an invoice, but it does carry the councils vat number as far as im concerned thats £211.07 plus £36.93 vat, so im claiming the vat back.... |

The answer to the question seems to be that services for which a council doesn't charge is regarded as 'non-business' and therefore outside the scope of VAT. Even where a charge is applied (as is the case for taxi/PH licensing) it can still be treated as non-business if it's done under a specific legal regime applicable only to councils and doesn't significantly distort competition with other bodies. |

roughly translated as:- "we are a council and aim to keep hold of any vat paid to us.." ill put it thru my way and de-register quick before taking any fares.... |
