VAT and Indirect Tax Principal, Ruth Corkin, writes in the International VAT Monitor Journal.
There are a number of concepts that make VAT a complex tax. One of these is the issue whether something is a single supply made up of a number of components taxed at a single VAT rate, or a multiple supply comprising of a number of individual supplies taxed at different rates.
This area has been extensively litigated at EU and, post-Brexit, UK courts.
In the article, Ruth addresses this issue from a UK perspective and looks at HMRC’s approach and the developments in both UK and EU case law that influence this approach.
