Premium figures
- VAT premium figures for the period from 1 April, 2002 to 30 June, 2002, were sent out at the beginning of July 2002 by the Xchanging Ins-sure Services Data and Information section. These should be used in determining the amount of input VAT that can be recovered by each Agency when making VAT returns for the period ended 30 September, 2002.
- These figures should also be used by syndicates underwriting for the 2000 year of account onwards when making VAT returns for the period ended 30 September, 2002. For further information on the Lloyd's VAT arrangements please see market bulletins Y2158 and Y2507 below.
