answer text

An extension of the zero rate of VAT was introduced in May 2020 to provide consistency in approach between certain physical and digital publications. Audiobooks are already taxed consistently at the standard rate in both physical and digital format.Providing VAT relief for audiobooks would have a fiscal cost and should be viewed in the context of over £50 billion of other requests for relief from VAT that the Government has received since the EU referendum.Although the Government keeps all taxes under review, there are no plans to change the rate of VAT on audiobooks.
