How Does VAT Work?

VAT reporting is required on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis, depending on your business’s VAT scheme. Your VAT return summarizes the VAT collected on sales and the VAT spent on purchases. If the VAT collected exceeds the VAT spent, you owe HMRC the difference. Conversely, if you’ve incurred more VAT than collected, HMRC will reimburse the difference

FAQs


What is VAT and how does it work?

VAT (Value Added Tax) is a tax applied to goods and services at each stage of production or sale. Businesses must charge VAT on their sales and can reclaim VAT on their purchases. VAT reporting is required periodically—monthly, quarterly, or annually—depending on your VAT scheme. If the VAT you collect on sales exceeds the VAT you spend on purchases, you owe HMRCthe difference. If you’ve spent more VAT than you’ve collected, HMRC will reimburse the excess.

Do sole traders need to pay VAT?

Sole traders must pay VAT if their taxable turnover exceeds the VAT registration threshold set by HMRC. If your turnover is below this threshold, you may choose to voluntarily register for VAT. VAT registration allows you to reclaim VAT on business expenses but requires you to charge VAT on your sales and adhere to VAT regulations

How can Divine Accountants assist with VAT for commercial property?

Divine Accountants provides expert guidance on VAT issues related to commercial property. We help you understand how VAT applies to your property transactions, manage VAT on property purchases and sales, and ensure compliance with relevant VAT regulations. Our services also include assistance with VAT registration and claims for VAT on property expenses.

What is the VAT annual accounting scheme, and is it suitable for my business?

The VAT annual accounting scheme allows businesses to submit one VAT return per year rather than quarterly or monthly. This scheme is suitable for businesses with an annual taxable turnover under a specific limit. It simplifies VAT reporting and can improve cash flow. Divine Accountants can assess if this scheme is appropriate for your business and assist with the registration and compliance process.
