At our company, we understand the importance of having access to the best medical equipment for your health and well-being. However, we also understand that the cost of medical equipment can be a significant burden, especially for those who need it most. That's why we are pleased to offer VAT relief on all qualifying medical equipment purchases. If you are purchasing medical equipment for personal use, you may be eligible for VAT relief. This means that you can save up to 20% on the cost of your purchase. To qualify for VAT relief, your equipment must be designed for use by someone with a chronic illness, disability, or other medical condition.

To Qualify for VAT Relief

To take advantage of VAT relief, simply select the qualifying items you wish to purchase and proceed to checkout. At checkout, you will be asked to provide some basic information about your medical condition and the intended use of the equipment. Once this information is verified, the VAT relief will be applied to your purchase. We are committed to providing our customers with high-quality medical equipment at affordable prices. By offering VAT relief, we hope to make it easier for everyone to access the medical equipment they need to maintain their health and well-being. If you have any questions about our VAT relief program or our products, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our friendly and knowledgeable team is always happy to help.

VAT Relief Program

It is important to note that our VAT relief program is in compliance with HM Customs and Excise Notice 701.7. This notice outlines the conditions under which medical equipment may be eligible for VAT relief, and we strictly adhere to these guidelines. We want our customers to have peace of mind knowing that they are receiving legitimate VAT relief on qualifying medical equipment purchases. If you have any questions or concerns about our compliance with Notice 701.7, please don't hesitate to contact us.
