So reading the post in the Wanted Section it seems any bike imported prior to Brexit is now liable for Vat! I've been building mine for ages and never gave it a thought. So what value will they charge the VAT on? anybody got more info on this? I have the original German logbook and an out of date NOVA.

Bloody hope not because of covid I’ve never mot’d or registered mine just pottered around the lanes locally.
I assumed as I had all the paperwork, nova etc it’d be ok.

I think as long as it was declared on nova within 14 days of arrival
It’s then got no time limit to get it registered

That's fine then, I read it that the NOVA expires. Mine was about 3 years ago that it was imported. Phew.... I can relax. Phil |

I think between us we should try to find out the official answer. |

Tax paid or assessed and no tax to pay should be it
Not like your P60's expire
Do they not say we have to keep tax records for 5 years. That wouldn't work if a NOVA "expired"

Notification of vehicles arrival.....Once it’s arrived it’s arrived....it can’t un arrive !
The dating certificate has a time limit, as would mot (obviously) etc but the nova ref number is fixed.

I would think that anyone importing and/or doing a nova on a euro bike since Jan 1 2021 could well be subject to VAT.
Any nova before this should be ok as the nova is only issued once any vat or or taxes have been paid.

When i imported a car in 2000 to the UK I was told to always keep the import paperwork including the tax paid info, 'just in case'. Seems that is still valid advice.
