Hi,
VAT registered client has rented an office and want to sublet to others.
Their intention is to sublet land and therefore not to charge VAT on this. (i.e. not opt to tax)
I understand that if this was deemed a "service" then this would be a vatable supply.
Is there any way of making sure this situation is subletting land rather than offering a service (i.e. renting desk space)
It is in the clients contract with the "main" landlord that they are allowed to sublet I'm just a bit worried that we will be on the wrong side of "substance over form"
Thanks
Ben

Correct
A chair is not land.
Whether it is exempt from VAT is another story. Definitely not land
