Assisted Purchase

Music Education - VAT Free Sales Within The UK - The Assisted Instrument Purchase Scheme (AIPS)

The Assisted Instrument Purchase Scheme enables many thousands of pupils at Local Education Authority Schools to purchase instruments free from VAT. In addition to our customary discounts, this can mean dramatic savings. This procedure has the full approval of H.M. Customs & Excise. We have long experience of operating this scheme on a nationwide basis both through schools and education authorities.

What is the Choice of musical instruments?

We offer a huge choice of high quality, professionally set-up instruments additionally if you need help with your selection, we are happy to offer professional advice by our team of restorers at Cremona House Violin Shop.
