UK Ride-Hailing Firms to Charge VAT on Full Fares Starting January 2026

  • UK ride-hailing services must apply VAT to the full fare of journeys starting January 2, 2026.
  • Private hire and taxi journeys will be excluded from the Tour Operators’ Margin Scheme unless part of specific travel services.
  • Previously, VAT was only charged on the margin, not the full fare, for these services.
