(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, with effect from 1st January 1993, substitutes new items 1 and 2 for items 1 to 11 of Group 9 of Schedule 5 to the Value Added Tax Act 1983 and amends Group 10 of Schedule 5 to that Act. The changes are a consequence of the Value Added Tax (Place of Supply of Services) Order 1992 and the amendment of Articles 15(3) and 15(14) of the EC 6th Directive 77/388/EEC by the amending Directive 91/680/EEC.
Article 2 substitutes a new item 1 of Group 9 which provides for the zero-rating of the supply in certain circumstances of work carried out on goods for export. It also substitutes a new item 2 which provides for the zero-rating of the services of arranging for the export of goods and supplies made outside the Community.
Article 3(a) provides zero-rating for the transport of goods treated as supplied in the United Kingdom when those services are used in connection with an export from or an import into the Community.
Article 3(b) deletes the reference to item 11 in item 10(b) of Group 10.
Article 3(c) deletes item 11 of Group 10.
Article 3(d) substitutes a new item 12 of Group 10. The new item 12(a) is no longer restricted by reference to the place where the recipient belongs, but will only apply to movements of goods into and out of the Community. Item 12(b) is unchanged.
Article 4 revokes a provision of the Value Added Tax (Transport) Order 1990 which amended item 11 and which has become spent as a result of article 3(c).
