Common questions
Can't see your question? Call us on 01924 400216. Advice is always free.
Should I register for VAT voluntarily?
Sometimes. If most of your customers are VAT-registered businesses, it can let you reclaim VAT on your costs without affecting your prices. If you sell to the public, it usually makes you more expensive. We'll work it out with your numbers.
What if I should have registered already?
HMRC can charge VAT on your sales from the date you should have registered, even if you didn't charge it to customers. Speak to us quickly and we'll keep the cost down.
What is Making Tax Digital for VAT?
All VAT-registered businesses must keep digital records and file returns through compatible software. We set this up and file for you.
Can you take over from my current accountant mid-year?
Yes. We collect your records and VAT history from your previous accountant, so there's no gap between returns.
