VATREG29450 - Transfers of going concerns (TOGC): VAT registration: acquisitions
For further registration information with regard to acquisitions, see VATREG39000.
VAT Act 1994, section 49(1)(a) does not refer to acquisitions, so there is no requirement for the transferee of a business making relevant acquisitions to have to refer to the transferor’s relevant acquisitions when determining whether and when to VAT register.
