VAT Exemption Denied: FTT Rules Intra-Group Services as Single Supply

  • JPMorgan Chase Bank NA made supplies to JPMorgan Securities plc
  • Supplies included generic business services and services necessary for transactions with clients
  • HMRC contended that the supplies were taxable
  • FTT determined that the supplies constituted a single supply
  • FTT concluded that the single supply was taxable and not exempt from VAT
  • FTT did not make a finding on the Exemption Issue
  • CBNA argued that the securities exemption and payment exemption applied
  • FTT concluded that the transactions were technical or administrative in nature and not exempt
  • Case provides guidance on determining single or multiple supplies
  • VAT grouping does not mean all transactions are disregarded for VAT purposes.
