VAT Returns & Compliance

Filing VAT returns accurately and on time is a crucial requirement for businesses registered for Value Added Tax (VAT) in the UK. With ever-changing tax regulations and strict HMRC compliance requirements, businesses must ensure their VAT obligations are managed efficiently. At The Expert Firm, we provide expert VAT return services, ensuring timely submissions, accurate calculations, and full compliance, helping businesses avoid penalties and maintain financial stability.

What is VAT Returns & Compliance?

A VAT return is a periodic tax report submitted to HMRC, detailing a business’s VAT liability—how much VAT it has charged on sales and how much it can reclaim on purchases. Businesses with a taxable turnover above the VAT threshold (£90,000 as of 2024) must register for VAT and file regular VAT returns. Ensuring compliance means adhering to HMRC rules, making accurate declarations, and meeting submission deadlines.
