Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will take steps to require e-commerce platforms and payment-service providers operating in the UK to comply with UK VAT law.

All e-commerce platforms and payment-service providers operating in the UK have a legal obligation to comply with UK VAT law.

HMRC uses a risk based approach and range of measures to tackle non-compliance and continues to work with businesses as part of its ongoing compliance strategy.
