Non-EC residents studying or working in the UK or EC residents may also qualify to use the scheme if they intend to permanently leave the EC for a minimum period of 12 months. To qualify under this provision you must:
intend to leave the UK with the goods by the last day of the third month following that in which the goods were purchased for an immediate destination outside the EC; and remain outside the EC for a period of at least 12 months; and export the goods having produced them, their receipts and the VAT refund document to Customs at the point of departure from the EC
