Zero rated VAT on mobility stairlifts South Wales !

If you are chronically sick or diabled, you are eligible not to pay VAT when purchasing a stairlift or paying for repairs/servicing on a stairlift.

A person is ‘chronically sick or disabled’ if he/she is a person:

with a physical or mental impairment which has a long-term and substantial adverse effect upon his/her ability to carry out everyday activities;
with a condition which the medical profession treats as a chronic sickness, such as diabetes; or
who is terminally ill.


If a parent, spouse or guardian acts on behalf of a ‘chronically sick or disabled’ person, your supply is treated as being made to that ‘chronically sick or disabled’ person

It does not include a frail elderly person who is otherwise able-bodied or any person who is only temporarily disabled or incapacitated, such as with a broken limb.

However if a person has no disabilities but is over the age of 60, they can purchase a stairlift or stairlift repairs at the reduced rate of VAT which is currently 5%.

All is required to purchase a stairlift with either zero rated VAT or the reduced rate VAT of 5% is a signed declaration which is supplied by South Wales Stairlifts when paying for your services.
