Re: Who is ultimately responsible for collecting/paying the VAT
The thing is that if this were to be successful, it isn't Uber who pays the VAT, in the end. It's us consumers.
All Uber would do - if forced - is add 20% on top of the bill and pass the money onto the taxman.
So I guess what this case is about removing the 20% advantage Uber has over VAT registered taxi companies.
