What is VAT?
Value Added Tax (VAT) is a tax levied on the consumption of goods and services within the United Kingdom. Businesses that are registered for VAT must submit regular VAT returns to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) to declare the VAT they have charged and paid over the given period.
VAT returns are usually submitted every quarter and contain information about a business’s VAT liability, which is calculated by subtracting the VAT the business has paid from the VAT it has charged on its sales. If the VAT the business has charged is greater than the VAT it has paid, the business will need to pay the difference to HMRC. If the VAT the business has paid is greater than the VAT it has charged, the business will receive a refund from HMRC.
Submitting accurate VAT returns is essential for businesses as failing to do so can lead to financial penalties, interest, and even legal action. It is therefore crucial that businesses keep detailed records of their sales and purchases and ensure that they are properly accounted for in their VAT returns.Submitting accurate VAT returns is essential for businesses as failing to do so can lead to financial penalties, interest, and even legal action.
