MTD compliance isn’t optional — getting it right shouldn’t be hard.
Value Added Tax, or VAT, is one of the most crucial—and misinterpreted—aspects of doing business in the United Kingdom. Making a mistake can be expensive due to the complicated regulations governing imports, exports, digital services, and sector-specific exemptions, as well as the frequent changes in legislation.
That’s where we step in.
From registration and compliance to professional advice and digital transformation through Making Tax Digital (MTD), our committed UK VAT service provides comprehensive support. Whether you are a new business, an expanding SME, or an international company doing business in the UK, we assist you in managing VAT effectively and accurately so you can concentrate on what really counts—expanding your company.
The majority of goods and services sold in the UK, as well as some imports, are subject to value-added tax, or VAT. If your company’s revenue surpasses the £90,000 HMRC VAT threshold, you must register for VAT. To increase credibility and recover input VAT, many businesses choose voluntary registration, even if they are below the threshold.
VAT is more than just paying taxes, though; it’s also about managing cash flow, comprehending schemes, maintaining compliance, and avoiding fines. Businesses can maximize savings, streamline operations, and avoid the possibility of costly blunders with professional handling and customized VAT planning.
If your company has a VAT registration, you have to:
It is crucial to comprehend these obligations in order to prevent fines, penalties, or cash flow problems.
The main three VAT rates in the UK are
• Standard Rate (20%)—Applies to most goods and services.
• Reduced Rate (5%)—For items such as children’s car seats and home energy.
• Zero Rate (0%)—Includes food, books, and children’s clothes.
Certain products and services, like healthcare and education, are exempt from VAT. To guarantee compliance, it is essential to appropriately classify your goods and services.
When to File a VAT Registration
If your taxable turnover in a 12-month rolling period surpasses £90,000, you are required to register. Additionally, if your turnover is below the threshold, you can voluntarily register, which could help your business by enhancing credibility and allowing you to claim VAT.
Advantages of Voluntary VAT Registration
• Return input VAT
• Enhance professionalism and company image
• Deal with VAT-registered vendors more effortlessly
• Cut expenses if the majority of clients are VAT-registered.
Through each stage of the registration process, we help you make decisions about whether to register, which scheme to use, and how to guarantee HMRC approval.
Flat Rate Structure
Perfect for small companies with less than £150,000 in revenue. You give HMRC a set percentage and keep the difference between the amount of VAT that is charged and paid.
Plan for Annual Accounting
You submit a single VAT return annually and pay in advance rather than filing returns on a quarterly basis.
Cash Accounting System
Cash flow management benefits from accounting for VAT based on payments made and received.
We assist you in assessing and selecting the best plan based on the size, structure, and cash flow of your company.
