Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government under what circumstances value added tax can be applied to school uniforms.
This question was answered on 4th November 2015
Children’s clothing, including a school uniform, is VAT zero-rated if it is designed for young children and is of a size that would fit the average child aged under 14 years. Larger sizes of clothing are standard rated irrespective of the age of the wearer.
