danthedriver Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 You may also be able to claim all the VAT on a new car if it’s mainly used: as a taxi for driving instruction for self-drive hire We as PVH, if you start working for yourself, you’re classed as a self-employed sole trader You must also register for VAT if you expect your takings to be more than £82,000 a year. You can usually reclaim the VAT paid on goods and services purchased for use in your business. MOre info: https://www.gov.uk/reclaim-vat/cars Is it possible???

LUED Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Yes, but you have to be VAT registered, which means giving 20% of your earnings to the tax man. Now,since Uber don't give you a VAT invoice, you're unable to claim that back. It's only worth, in my opinion, being VAT registered (even voluntarily if you're under the £82,000/year threshold), if you can bill your clients/companies with a VAT invoice, where you claim it back, and do litle/no work for Uber.
