5% VAT on Hot Take Away Food
until Jan.


[VAT cut for some sectors from 20% to 5%
Sunak says it's important to get the hospitality
sector "bustling again" while making
sure we "enjoy summer safely".
"At the moment, VAT on hospitality and
tourism is charged at 20%.
So I’ve decided, for the next six months, to cut VAT on food, accommodation and attractions," he adds.

"Eat-in or hot takeaway food from restaurants,
cafes and pubs, accommodation
in hotels, B&Bs, campsites and caravan sites,
attractions like cinemas, theme parks and zoos.

"All these and more will see VAT reduced,
from next Wednesday until
January 12th, from 20% to 5%."]
