The Government will review the existing VAT Flat rate scheme in the year 2022. Thus, the VAT Flat rate scheme of 3% will be restricted to retailers of goods with annual turnover of GHS200,000 to GHS500,000. Currently, the VAT Flat rate of 3% applies to both wholesalers and retailers of goods. According to the Minister, this policy is intended to address the inequalities that domestic producers of local substitute face vis-à-vis importers of similar products. Wholesalers of goods will now be required to charge and account for VAT at the standard rate of 12.5%.
