17.5%VAT or 20% VAT was created by cpsc
We are in the process of preparing a final claim (before court action) regarding monies owed to us in 2007 when the VAT rate was 17.5%. I believe any monies now paid to us would attract(we would pay) a VAT rate of 20%. Hence, we should apply this rate to the net amount owed to us/claimed now.

Could anyone confirm if our understanding is correct.

Hi. I've always understood it to depend on when the work was done and the invoice issued. Here's a useful link to the HMRC site which I hope is of help
