VAT exception is applicable to UK and European customers who wear wigs for medical reasons only. Customers that wear wigs due to Alopecia, chemotherapy treatment, or any other medical condition that causes hair loss and is confirmed by a GP, are classed as necessity wearers. If you fall under this category, you are entitled to receive the VAT off the cost of your wig or piece.
Exemption on VAT is available whether you purchase from over the phone or the internet. Telephone orders or internet orders will require a VAT Exemption request to be completed for prices to be quoted without VAT.
