17 September 2010 Many of the things you buy will carry a VAT charge, but if you are registered for VAT you can normally claim a credit for the VAT charged on most business purchases. This is your Input Tax. It includes not only the VAT on your purchases of raw materials or on goods purchased for resale, but also the VAT on things like:

a) Capital goods, such as machinery or equipment for use in the business;

b) Tools and accessories used in the business

It does not include VAT paid on goods for someone else’s business or VAT on private purchases, such as furnishings for your home and those goods mentioned in the negative list in the APVAT Act. VAT charged in these circumstances is not your input tax.
