FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a VAT return?

A VAT return is a document submitted to HMRC that reports the VAT your business has charged on sales and the VAT you’ve paid on purchases. It’s used to calculate the amount of VAT your business owes or the refund you’re entitled to.

How often do I need to submit a VAT return?

Most businesses submit VAT returns quarterly. However, if you’re on a different VAT scheme, such as annual accounting, you may submit annually. We’ll help you determine the correct submission frequency for your business.

What happens if I miss a VAT return deadline?

Missing a VAT return deadline can lead to penalties and interest charges from HMRC. We ensure that your returns are filed on time to avoid these costly issues.

Can I claim back VAT on all purchases?

In general, you can reclaim VAT on most business-related purchases. However, there are exclusions, such as VAT on non-business items or certain vehicles. Our team will help you determine what can and can’t be reclaimed.

How do I know if I need to register for VAT?

You must register for VAT if your business’s taxable turnover exceeds £90,000 over 12 months. If you’re unsure whether you need to register, we can assess your situation and guide you through the process.
