Employment Agency’s Reimbursed Medical Staff Costs Not Exempt from VAT, Tribunal Rules

  • AMS supplied medical staff to healthcare providers and treated reimbursed employment costs as VAT exempt.
  • HMRC determined both employment costs and commission were taxable, issuing VAT assessments.
  • AMS was not state-regulated and did not meet the requirements for VAT exemption under Note 8 of Group 7, Schedule 9 VATA.
  • The FTT found the supply of staff was not ‘closely related’ to the supply of medical care and dismissed the appeal.
  • The appeal was unsuccessful; all consideration received by AMS was subject to VAT.
