VAT registration & Making Tax Digital
We keep an eye on your turnover and keep you on the right side of HMRC.
You must register once your VAT-taxable turnover exceeds £90,000 over any rolling 12-month period. We monitor this for you and register you in time.
If your turnover falls below £88,000, deregistering may benefit you. We advise whether it's worthwhile for your business.
VAT-registered businesses must keep digital records and file via MTD-compatible software. We handle the digital filing so you stay compliant.
