In a recent notice published by HMRC – Notice 8: sailing your pleasure craft to and from the UK, boat owners are being told to carry ‘documentary evidence supporting VAT status . . . at all times’. This is because, post-Brexit, owners may be asked by customs officials to provide evidence of a vessel’s UK VAT status.
