Just sign and send the form and save 20%

• Applicable for VAT deduction – wireless streamers
• Not applicable for VAT deduction – non-streaming remote controls and battery charging units

For eligibility:

• You are a UK resident
• As a hearing impaired person your disability has a long-term and substantial adverse effect upon ability to carry out everyday activities
• The goods are for domestic or personal use – ‘domestic or personal’ use means that the supply must be made available specifically for the use of an eligible individual.

There is no requirement for you to be registered as disabled – You simply need to fill in the declaration form below to confirm that you suffer from hearing impairment and that the equipment you are purchasing is for personal use only.

For clarity: If the equipment is for personal use by the person buying it and you can confirm this before supply, then we can zero rate the products supplied (i.e. you cannot then put the purchase through as a business expense).

The below declaration form must be emailed or posted to us BEFORE we can ship the relevant accessory.

Please note there are strict penalties by HMRC VAT for making false declarations!

If you are in any doubt as to whether you are eligible to receive goods or services zero-rated for VAT you should call us in the first instance – or consult Notice 701/7 VAT reliefs for disabled people or contact the HMRC National Advice Service on 0845 302 0203 before completing the declaration.
