Reclaiming UK VAT as operating crew
Hi,
I am a UK expat who often operates to LHR / LGW. Whenever I buy goods as a pax, i can reclaim the VAT at the airport on my exit, but I don't seem to be able to do this a operating crew.
I was told that you CAN reclaim VAT, but my friend couldn't remember the name/number of the form to use. it seems most of the customs people don't know that this is possible.
Is my friend right? I hope someone can help.
Best regards
Mo
