Visa Application Agent

Hi, Does a UK business (LTD) that helps customers obtain overseas VISA's (i.e. assist with the application process) need to charge VAT on their service once turnover breeches VAT threshold given that VISA fees charged by the embassies are outside the scope of VAT. Thank you.

The service of assisting with this will be a vatable supply.

However, the place of supply rules will determine if the supply is within the scope of VAT and whether you would need to register. You can see the guidance below;
