Easytruck Disclosure Application Dismissed in VAT Appeal

  • In Easytruck Ltd v HMRC [2026] UKFTT 1412 (TC), the FTT dismissed the company’s application for disclosure in a VAT appeal.
  • The Tribunal held that the documents sought were not relevant to the main issue: whether the company was entitled to recover input VAT.
  • Even if disclosed, the material would not establish entitlement to the input tax claimed, so it would not assist a fair determination of the appeal.
  • The FTT set aside confusing earlier directions and ordered the appellant to provide evidence and witness statements within 14 days.
  • The company was given a final opportunity to file the documents it intends to rely on, failing which the appeal will be struck out.
