1. The Problem / Facts
Should the value of assets, for which VAT has never been claimed, be included in the total value of assets on the VAT123e form when ceasing to be a vendor?
2. Applicable Law
VAT Act 89 or 1991
3. Application of the Law to the Facts

These assets contribute to the overall value of your business assets, even if VAT was not claimed on them initially. Therefore, include them in the total value of assets on the form dispute the act being silent about this when ceasing registration.
