Hi,
We run a cleaning company so are on the flat rate scheme. We now source staff from an agency that charge VAT. Are we able to claim that back with it being a service?

Hoping for some guidance after hours of searching online and not coming up with any clear answers.
My cousin and I have a cleaning business as a partnership. We have both domestic and commercial clients.
