What rate of VAT is charged on print?
It depends on the product. Leaflets, flyers, brochures and booklets are zero-rated, so no VAT is added. Most other products, including business cards and posters, are charged at 20%.
| Product | VAT rate |
|---|---|
| Leaflets | 0% |
| Flyers | 0% |
| Brochures | 0% |
| Booklets | 0% |
| Business cards | 20% |
| Posters | 20% |
| Most other products | 20% |
There are exceptions, so check the product page or your invoice for the rate on a particular product.
VAT is worked out per product, so an order with a mix of products can have both rates on it.
Orders outside the UK
Organisations outside the UK may be subject to different rates.
If you pay with PrintPass credit
