VAT Refunds on Medical Equipment
In Ireland everyone can claim a full refund of the VAT included on all medical or disability equipment purchased privately. That amount’s to 23% of the purchase price. So if you buy a €400.00 product you can get €92.00 refunded directly to your bank, within weeks of submitting your claim.
You don’t need to be a business, or registered for VAT, to claim your refund and it’s been made to be a very simple and straightforward process. All that’s required is your PPSN number and a copy of the paid invoice to complete your refund.
It can be reclaimed on-line or by post using the following Revenue links, https://revenue.ie/en/vat/documents/form-vat61a.pdf
The refund applies only to VAT on products purchased. Medical services or equipment rentals are not covered by these refunds.
