Hi,

When a Property Developing Ltd Comp purchases a domestic property with the intention of upgrading and selling on, should they register for a domestic supply or business supply ?

My understanding is business supply is for business premises.

Anyone know ?

Thanks

    I suggest you contact the supplier.

    When I bought a new build, the developer had it registered on a residential tariff.

    ... but they were charged VAT at the full 20% as it was not being used for domestic, residential purposes when they had it registered.
    (Not that they would care, as they would reclaim any such VAT as input VAT)
