From the 1st of January 2015 the Second Reduced Rate of Vat (currently 13.5%) applies to the supply of live horses other than those normally intended for use in agricultural production. Horses being exported to a third country e.g. mainland UK incur no VAT, in this instance VAT matters are between the Purchaser and their importing country.
The Livestock rate (currently 4.8%) continues to apply to the supply of horses normally intended for use in agricultural production. Accordingly, the Livestock Rate (currently 4.8%) only applies to those horses that are supplied to a farmer. In practical terms, therefore, in order for the supply of a horse to qualify for the application of the livestock rate (currently 4.8%) the purchaser should make a written declaration to the VAT accountable supplier (Cavan Equestrian Centre Ltd) that he or she is a farmer (as defined in section 2 of the VAT Consolidation Act 2010) with details of his or her name, address and PPS/VAT registration number (If this applicable to you this farmer’s declaration can be completed in the Sales Accounts office at Cavan Equestrian Centre)
Please note Price in Sales Ring is Nett of VAT and Commissions
Cavan Horse & Pony Sales reserve the right to charge interest on unpaid accounts at 5% per month or part thereof on all accounts which are unpaid 21 days after the last date of Sale.

All sales: 3.5% of the sale price is payable by the Vendor and 6.5% by the purchaser.
9. PRIVATE SALES

If a horse leaves the sales ring unsold a potential purchaser may negotiate directly (or with the assistance of a member of Cavan Sales Team) with the Vendor, if an agreement is reached both purchaser and vender must put this transaction through the main office.
