Any business whose turnover exceeds (or will exceed) the VAT threshold of £90,000 in any 12 months period, not just the annual accounting period, must register for VAT and then account for it. Most goods and services are charged at the standard VAT of 20%. Businesses may choose to opt for voluntary VAT registration. Alongside other filing requirements, VAT registered companies must then complete a quarterly VAT return to HMRC, which is now done online. This breaks down the amount of VAT due on sales and the amount of VAT reclaimable on company purchases, with the difference between these being the amount of VAT payable to HMRC. The VAT return is due at the end of the month following the end of the quarter covered by the return. |
