VAT on New Build - Carpets

T.C.

Simple Question: Can my client reclaim the VAT on carpets as part of the new build project? They will be fitted as part of the property, prior to sale.

Just found the answer to my question. No VAT cannot be reclaimed on carpets, but it can on flooring such as vinyl and wooden floor systems. Why? Who knows! :001_rolleyes:
