VAT - Train, Flights tickets are zero rated?

[Aurelia]

Can anybody help if train tickets (Eurostar) and flights tickets (Lufthansa, Ryanair) are zero rated or there are outside the scope of VAT?

Many thanks,
Aurelia

Zero rated.

Many thanks for your help.

I have one more questions:
What should I do with transactions re flights, trains tickets posted in the previous VAT return as “NO VAT” instead of “ZERO RATED”? Can I just change the tax code from “NO VAT” to “”ZERO RATED” and the change will be reflected on current VAT return? I am using Xero.

Many thanks,
Aurelia

I really don't think it matters all that much, i'm yet to meet a VAT officer who really cares so long as HMRC are getting what they're owed.
