RE: Online membership/subscription with live support from a tutor: digital product for VAT or not?
Thank you for responding. Please could you advise on whether any of the following supplies would be considered a digital service - or not: I intend to host: 1. Tutorials consisting of written instructions and prerecorded video, with support from me via comments, direct message, email or during a scheduled live online chat session. 2, Live online chat and co-working sessions. 3. Community chat threads for subscribers: they can ask questions or reply to a prompt, I respond. 4. Access to archive of all tutorials that were previously available for free (i.e. open to anyone including without a subscription) 5. Access to archive of online essays that were previously available for free (as above). Thank you -
Online membership/subscription with live support from a tutor: digital product for VAT or not?
From my understanding of the rules around digital products, an "online course consisting of pre-recorded videos and downloadable PDFs plus support from a live tutor" is not covered by the VAT rules for digital products i.e. no VAT. But how about if this was offered in the form of a membership or subscription, with a monthly fee for access to the materials AND still had support from a live tutor? Would this be the same - outside the VAT rules?
