                    Just wondering if a voluntary senior citizens/luncheon club can claim any tax back on meals ordered in?

            Has any tax been paid? If so, what?0

            Well what the thinking is, that the food/meals they are buying are inclusive of VAT what I'm wondering is can the voluntary group claim the VAT back off the meals?
 It might sound a bit menial but some of these people are really interested in this
 Thanks

            The answer is no - unless they register for VAT themselves and charge VAT on anything the members pay for the meals.0

            Hi Cathy,
 Where do you get the ordered meals in from? Is there definitely VAT on them in the first place? Do you charge a fee for the meals you provide?Today is the first day of the rest of your life0

            Hi Cath,
 They should be VAT on the meals as they are hot (I am assuming). The first question is are you register for VAT?0
