- HMRC has updated its view on the VAT treatment of temporary medical staff (locum doctors) following a tribunal decision.
- The tribunal ruled that VAT exemption applies to supplies of locum doctors, including those provided by employment businesses, not just deputising services.
- HMRC is reviewing its policy and will issue further guidance.
- Affected suppliers who overdeclared output tax on locum doctor supplies in the last 4 years may claim a refund.
- Claims require specific procedures, including submitting form VAT652 and following HMRC instructions.
