In 1940, the tax imposed on products was purchased tax or Selective Employment Tax. But in 1973 VAT was imposed at a standard rate of 10% and reduced to 8% in 1974 due to some reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But now the standard Rate is 20% in the UK which is charged on every business whose sales are 100000 \u00a3. It is a major source of revenue for the government. Along with this standard Rate, there are two other types of VAT, one is a Reduced Rate of 5%, and the other one is a Zero Rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is VAT?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VAT( Value Added Tax) is the amount of tax charged on organisations that are providing services or producing goods. A company called HMRC (HM Revenue &#038; Customs) is responsible for charging an amount of taxes and receiving the amounts. VAT has the following three different types.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Standard Rate of 20%<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The current VAT rate in the UK is 20% for all types of services and organisations known as the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/calcvat.uk\/what-is-vat\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"follow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Standard VAT Rate<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

The Reduced Rate is less than the standard Rate imposed on commercial and residential property, home energy and children\u2019s car seats.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Zero Rate<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This category contains all those services or products which don\u2019t pay any kind of VAT.
