VAT Returns

Accurate and timely VAT return preparation and submission for your business.

In short

We prepare and submit your VAT returns through Making Tax Digital-compatible software from £100 + VAT. We check the figures, help you choose the right VAT scheme, and keep every quarter on time.

Do you need to register for VAT?

You must register for VAT if your VAT-taxable turnover goes over £90,000 in any rolling 12-month period, or you expect it to in the next 30 days. You can also register voluntarily below the threshold, which can help some businesses reclaim VAT on costs.

VAT return deadlines

Most businesses file quarterly. The return and payment are due 1 calendar month and 7 days after the end of each VAT period. All VAT-registered businesses must keep digital records and file through MTD-compatible software.
