VAT Consultancy Services
Expert advice and compliance
Our VAT consultancy services can help you navigate complex VAT legislation and ensure you remain VAT compliant.
VAT registered business have a legal requirement to submit accurate VAT returns to HMRC. The returns should calculate the amount of VAT due on sales to customers, the VAT paid to suppliers and the VAT owed/due to be refunded. VAT returns need to be submitted using software that is compliant with Making Tax Digital for VAT.
When a technology business provides goods or services outside of the UK, they are responsible for applying the correct VAT treatment to their sales. When you supply services overseas you need to:
- Confirm the place of supply for VAT purposes;
- Confirm the VAT liability of the supply in that country and determine if you or your customer must account for VAT; and
- If you are required to account for VAT, you will need to register and add the local VAT and pay this to the correct tax authority.
Similarly, when you purchase services from overseas you will need to determine whether you need to self-account for the VAT or if you can recover the foreign VAT, failure to recover has a detrimental impact on your cash position.
