GRA says there is no VAT on medical services
Dear Editor,
The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) has noted with concern a “Peeping Tom” article published in the Wednesday, February 1, 2017 Edition of the Kaieteur News titled ‘VAT! VAT! VAT!’ In which the writer erroneously wrote that “VAT is now chargeable on medical services.” Please note that Schedule II to the VAT Act, Cap. 81:05 (Exempt Supplies) states the following: “Exempted for the purposes of section 18 are a supply of medical, dental, hospital, optical or paramedical services, other than veterinary services.” GRA is reminding the media that its Tax Advisory Services Section can be accessed via telephone numbers 227-6060/227-8222 extensions 1201-1204 for clarification on any tax matter of public interest.
