Summary

The VAT liability of property transactions can be a complex area. This case concerns a property held on trust, a belated notification of an option to tax, and exempt use by trust beneficiaries. The Appellants who acquired the property were unable to show the First Tier Tribunal (FTT) that, on the balance of probabilities, the option to tax the sale was not valid.
