Hearing Aids

Can I claim my hearing aids as a business expense? – YES

BUSINESS EXPENSES – since 2010, the cost of any disability aids that you need in order to do your work can be claimed as a business expense giving you TAX relief savings of up to 45%  (for the higher earning tax payer).

Hearing aids are included in this ruling. 

Can I claim back the VAT on my hearing aids? – YES

VAT – If you are a VAT registered business you can also claim back the VAT, saving a further 7-8%  (reduced VAT rate due to hearing aids being partially exempt).
