This will depend on
a) whether you are VAT registered
b) whether the supply of the information is subject to VAT (and if so
whether the rate is greater than 0% which is not always the case)
What a can of worms - better ask HM Customs and Excise - see

Subject: Who charges VAT for data subject access
requests?
Just a quickie:
What is your current practice on charging VAT for data
subject access
requests?
While my current practice is not to charge VAT to
individuals who ask for
information about themselves, I'm wondering whether I should
change my
practice when the request comes via an agent of the
individual, say their
solicitor.
Do members agree that it is appropriate to charge £10 per
request if the
request is made by an individual, and £10 + VAT if the
request is made via,
say, the individual's solicitor?
Regards
Martin
