The Case
Value Added Tax Input tax. The Upper Tribunal, Tax and Chancery Chamber, held that the First-tier Tribunal (Tax Chamber) had been entitled to find that the taxpayer company had known that transactions that it entered into had been in connection with VAT fraud, and accordingly the Revenue and Customs Commissioners had not erred in refusing to allow the taxpayer to claim repayment of VAT in relation to those transactions.
