Value added tax is one of the most complex and
onerous tax regimes imposed on business - so
complex that many businesses inadvertently
overpay or underpay
VAT.
The ever widening scope of VAT, the constant
stream of detailed changes to the regulations,
and the ever growing demands of HMRC call for a
trained professional eye to ensure that you do
not fall foul of the regulations and do not pay
HM Revenue and Customs more than you need
to!

VAT Registration
In the UK a business must
apply to be registered for VAT if its turnover,
within the scope of UK VAT, is in excess of
£64,000 per annum.
It may apply for voluntary registration where
anticipated turnover is below this threshold if
it can demonstrate a commercial reason for
requiring VAT
registration.
It should be noted, however, that to obtain
registration for VAT in the UK, the company
should be able to show that it is making a
taxable supply of goods or services in, or
from, the UK.
Aternatively the company should show that it is
making supplies abroad that would be taxable
supplies if made in the
UK.
In this case it is normally expedient to show
that the UK Company is generating input tax,
and does not have a tangible place of business
in any other country.
We can register appropriate UK companies
for VAT and provide VAT administration
services.
Registration is given at the discretion of
HMRC, and the process usually takes about a
month unless further queries arise during the
application process.
We cannot guarantee that a business will be
registered, or that it will continue to be
registered following an inspection of the
records. We will however, if required, advise
how problems can be
minimized.
