FTT Allows Turkish Food Supplies Ltd Appeal on Import VAT for Bottled Water Payments

• Turkish Food Supplies Ltd appealed against extra VAT assessments on bottled water imports.
• The FTT mainly allowed the appeals, except for one import where the burden of proof was not met.
• Advance payments were made to secure better prices, not linked to specific goods.
• The FTT agreed that payments were not for specific imports, thus not subject to import VAT.
• The appeal was dismissed for one import due to insufficient proof.
