At snowleader.co.uk, all prices shown include VAT (your shopping basket will update to suit the new VAT rules).
We remind you that you still have to pay VAT (20%) on all orders, however, the way you do this has now changed.

VAT is calculated on products only. Shipping costs are not included in this calculation.
The UK Government has set a threshold of £135 excluding VAT to outline the procedures of how the VAT will be paid:

• Below £135 excluding VAT - VAT is payable directly on our site on the total amount of your order.
• Above £135 excluding VAT - VAT is payable directly to the carrier when you receive your parcel.
