Is VAT charged at standard rate on USA Motorcyle events

VAT on USA Motorcyle events

Didn't find your answer?

I have a client who is VAT registered in the UK that organises motorcycle races in the UK and the entrance fees are VAT standard rated. However, he is now about to start organising races in the USA, does he zero these entrance fees for USA events or standard rate them for all entrants participating in the USA events or just those from outside the UK particularly USA ?

He doesn't do any of your suggestions. The supplies are Outside the Scope of UK VAT as the place of supply is the USA. However, you now need to get professional advice from a US tax expert as to whether amongst other things you need to consider State Sales tax.
