The 62 items exempted from VAT by the FG include gas generators and CNG/LPG dual-fuel vehicles. Check the full list of items below.

The Federal Government (FG) has exempted 62 items from paying Value Added Tax (VAT).

This was revealed by Taiwo Oyedele, Chairman of the Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, 4th October.

Oyedele said the exempted items are contained in an official gazette for the ‘Value Added Tax (Modification) Order, 2024,’ dated 3rd September 2024.

The new development comes barely 48 hours after Hon. Wale Edun, Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, announced the introduction of concessions aimed at revitalising the oil and gas industry to ensure a boost in Nigeria’s upstream and downstream sectors.

According to Channels TV, the minister unveiled two major fiscal incentives which included VAT Modification Order 2024 and Notice of Tax Incentives for Deep Offshore Oil and Gas Production, in accordance with the Oil and Gas Companies (tax incentives, exemption, remission, etc.) Order 2024.

In the official gazette, the federal government said the provisions of “This order, as they relate to Automotive Gas Oil (AGO) shall be deemed to have commenced on the 1st day of October 2023.”
