All Buckbootz safety footwear is tested and CE/UKCA certified to ISO EN 20345 standards. Providing the footwear meets the relevant HMRC height definitions (covers the ankles) and is to be worn for own ‘industrial’ use, the purchase of the boots should meet the zero rated – 0% status for Vat.
If you are purchasing safety footwear for employees, then please contact us immediately before purchasing as 20% standard rated vat should apply to the purchase. If you attempt to purchase more than two pairs of safety boots at a time, there will be a pop-up Vat warning explaining further.
Please note that safety trainers and non-safety footwear plus accessories like socks, insoles and laces are all applicable to 20% standard rated vat on purchase.
