VAT CONSENT

At Prime Hay, transparency and compliance are essential. In Portugal, the 0% VAT rate on animal feed may only be applied in specific situations defined by law.

This reduced VAT rate is exclusively available to customers who are officially registered as agricultural producers and whose animals are part of legally recognised production activities. In these cases, feed products can qualify for 0% VAT under Portuguese tax regulations.

If your animals are not part of registered agricultural production, the standard VAT rate will apply to your order.

To make this process clear and straightforward, Prime Hay provides a simple online consent form where eligible customers can confirm that they meet the required criteria. This allows us to apply the correct VAT treatment in accordance with the regulations.


The 0% VAT rate applies to customers who are officially registered as agricultural producers and who use their animals for recognised production activities, such as breeding, milk, or meat production.

It can only be applied when the purchase of hay or feed is directly linked to those legally defined production activities and the buyer meets the required tax registration criteria.

 

 

By completing this compliance agreement, you confirm that you are officially registered for agricultural production, that the animals for which you purchase hay or feed are used within legally recognised production activities, and that the application of the 0% VAT rate is justified under the relevant legislation.

You also confirm that the information provided is accurate and that you accept responsibility for the correct VAT classification of your purchases.

The information provided in this form is used solely to verify eligibility for the 0% VAT rate and to ensure compliant invoicing in accordance with applicable tax legislation. Your data is stored securely, used only for administrative and legal purposes related to your purchases, and is not shared with third parties unless required by law. We retain the information only as long as necessary to meet accounting and regulatory obligations.
