Can Disabled People Get a Golf Buggy VAT Free?

As an official supplier of the Disabled Golf Association and a company that supplies thousands of golf buggies each year, one of the most common questions we receive is whether disabled people can purchase a golf buggy VAT free.

The simple answer is yes. However, many golfers are unsure about the eligibility criteria and what information they need to provide.

In this guide, we'll explain exactly how VAT exemption works, who may qualify and what steps you need to take if you would like to purchase a golf buggy without paying VAT.

Can I Get a VAT-Free Golf Buggy?

Yes, you may be able to purchase a golf buggy VAT free if you meet the eligibility requirements for VAT exemption.

At Powaglide, we've made the process as straightforward as possible. When purchasing an eligible golf buggy through our website, simply select the VAT-free option available on the product page and complete the required declaration form confirming your eligibility.

If you're unsure whether you qualify, our team is always happy to talk you through the process.

What Do I Need to Prove VAT Exemption?

To qualify for VAT exemption, you will need to complete a VAT exemption declaration confirming that you have a long-term illness or disability that affects your everyday mobility.

In some cases, supporting documentation may also be requested. Examples can include:

• A Blue Badge.

• Evidence of receiving Personal Independence Payment (PIP).

• Evidence of receiving Disability Living Allowance (DLA).

• Documentation confirming eligibility under another recognised disability benefit scheme.

• Supporting information from a healthcare professional where appropriate.

Charities purchasing products specifically for use by disabled individuals may also qualify for VAT exemption.

If you're uncertain whether your circumstances meet the requirements, it's always worth contacting us for advice before placing your order.
