Remove VAT on travel COVID test cost required to enter the UK for all Travellers
Abolish VAT on all COVID testing required to enter UK in order to further support the recovery of the travel industry by making travel more affordable for all.
Address cost of pre COVID test require 24hrs before enters to the UK to be free making the post day 2 PCR test the only test chargeable
The cost of travel requirement test to enter the Uk is on average £120 per person (that’s £500 for a family of 4 incremental costs compared to pre the pandemic) removing Vat would make travel more affordable for all supporting the financial recovery of the travel industry & supporting those less financially well off who have made so many sacrifices through the pandemic be able to travel. It’s also gives all little back to also those who have been able to double vaccinate as yet.
