Corporate & Business Accounts
I am an international business. Why am I charged UK VAT and can I claim it back?

Why we charge VAT: Under UK tax laws, the "Place of Supply" for passenger transport is where the journey physically takes place (the UK). Therefore, we are legally required to charge 20% VAT on all transfers, regardless of where your business is based. The "Reverse Charge" mechanism does not apply.

How to Claim it Back:

  • UK Businesses: Claim via your standard VAT return.
  • Overseas Businesses (EU & US included): You can reclaim the VAT from HMRC using the VAT65A Scheme. We provide full VAT invoices to support your claim.
Do you provide corporate accounts?
Yes — monthly invoicing, priority bookings and a dedicated account manager.
How do we open an account?
Do you offer special tools for business clients?
Yes — a dedicated dispatch system to book/amend trips, track vehicles live, communicate with drivers and download invoices.
