** The rule will also apply if the recipient can only claim a partial VAT input. - The reason for this special rule is that connected persons could try to limit the VAT cost and therefore manipulate the prices so that the VAT cost is decreased. - If the recipient is a vendor and allowed to claim the full input tax, no manipulation can take place, as the VAT paid by the one vendor is claimed back by the other vendor. Therefore no special value of supply rules is required when the recipient can claim the full input tax Example - Time of supply for connected persons Facts: Farmer A is a vendor registered under Category B. Farmer A rents a harvesting machine to a who is connected to Farmer A (that is, Farmer B), during the peak season from January to March.

Farmer A will, therefore, have to account for the supply in the February 2022 retum. If Farmer A issues an invoice for the rental on or before 25 March 2022, the normal time of supply rules apply, in which case, Farmer A will declare the VAT on the supply in the return ending April 2022..
