Whether a new or existing business, we will also look at the VAT schemes you are eligible for and establish whether you would be better off adopting one or a mixture of them. For example, some VAT schemes can lead to tax savings and a reduction in bookkeeping responsibilities.
We can prepare your VAT return from your bookkeeping records, or we can take care of your record-keeping and the VAT return. And we will try to ensure that you claim as much VAT as possible, particularly on contentious items such as mixed-use expenditure and motor running costs.
As with other areas of tax, we can act as your Agent for VAT purposes and therefore correspond with HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) on your behalf. Paper VAT returns are scarce now, but our software allows us to file your VAT returns online with HMRC.
Late VAT registration, errors, late VAT returns and late VAT payments can lead to penalties and interest charges. So, allowing us to take care of your VAT affairs not only gives you peace of mind but should also avoid you wasting your hard-earned cash on penalties and interest.
