    Has revenue increased golf membership VAT from 9% to 13.5%.
    My club is trying to push this on which is totally fair, but when I quickly check I don’t think its has actually been changed but want to be sure before challenging.

    The 9% VAT rate was retained in respect of the provision of facilities for taking part in sporting activities whereas the rate of VAT on food that is supplied in the course of catering will increase from 9% to 13.5% from 1 January 2019.
