888. Meaning of 'supply'.

For the purposes of the Value Added Tax Act 1994, 'supply' includes all forms of supply, but does not include anything done otherwise than for a consideration¹. The legislation relating to VAT distinguishes supplies of goods from supplies of services²; in particular, there are different rules relating to the place and time of supply³. Anything which is not a supply of goods⁴ but is done for a consideration (including, if so done, the granting, assignment or surrender of any right) is treated as a supply of services⁵.

The Treasury may by order provide with respect to any description of transaction⁶
