(Threshold does not apply here) If a businesses is being taking over a VAT registered business as a going concern If you make distant sales into Northern Ireland and exceed the annual threshold. Note: Businesses include Sole Traders, Partnerships, Limited Companies, Clubs, Associations. What is Taxable Turnover Standard Rated Sales of goods and services Zero Rated Goods and Services Reverse Charge Output VAT Any Goods or Services you barter or part exchange The value of any goods you have used for private use Property services supplied (rent and service charges) where you have opted to tax the building. What is not Taxable Turnover Sales of capital items such as buildings , machinery, cars Exempt supplies Voluntary Registration You can apply to HMRC for voluntarily registration if: you are making taxable supplies where their value is under the £85,000 threshold. This will allow you to recover VAT expenses incurred. You are intending to make taxable supplies in the near future Register - online here UK VAT Explained VAT (Value Added Tax) is a tax on consumption and is added to the sale of goods and services supplied by VAT Registered businesses. Not all products and services sold attract VAT and there are a number of VAT rates or categories as follows: Standard Rated 20% (taxable) Reduced Rate 5% (taxable) Zero Rated (taxable) Exempt Outside The Scope Depending on the goods being sold or services being provided, one of the categories above will be applied to the sale. Standard Rated Goods and Services Standard Rated goods and services are goods sold or supplied by VAT registered businesses and include 20% VAT. Therefore invoices to customers will include 20 % VAT. Standard Rated services fall into the taxable services bucket and where businesses make taxable sales and exceed or are likely to exceed £90,000, they are required by law to Register for VAT. Examples of Standard Rated goods and services include: Fuel Professional Services such as Legal and Accountancy Computers and Mobile phones Hotel Accommodation No Domestic Energy Alcohol Restaurant food and hot takeaways Reduced Rate Goods and Services Reduced rate VAT of 5% is mainly applied within the domestic fuel and construction industry. Examples of Reduced Rate VAT at 5% include: Domestic / residential energy bills (Gas & Electric) Gas fired boiler installation Radiator Connection or re-connection to the gas mains Renovating a dwelling that has been empty for at least 2 years Zero Rated Goods and Services Goods and services supplied as Zero Rated VAT are taxable supplies but without VAT applied. Therefore invoices generated and sent to customers for zero rated supplies will not include VAT. Examples of Zero Rated goods and services include: Children's clothing Books Sewerage services supplied to domestic or industrial customers Water supplied to domestic households Insulation Take away - cold food Note: where businesses make sales of goods and services to non UK business customers, these can also be treated as Zero Rated in some instances as they are deemed outside the scope of UK VAT but are classed as taxable services which carry the right to deduct Input VAT. (Please see place of supply button) Exempt Goods and Services Exempt supplies of Goods and Services unlike standard rated and zero rated are not taxable supplies. Exempt supplies are listed in the VAT Act 1994 Sch 9 and include the following: Postal Services Insurance Land and Property Rental Education Financial Services Tax Point Rules Tax points are the specific points in time when sales of goods or services take place and are governed by rules set out by HMRC. VAT registered businesses must account for VAT within the period the tax points for their sales occur. So if a tax point occurs in March and the businesses next VAT return period is January to March then the VAT on the sale will have to be included within the quarter ending March VAT return. Basic Tax Point Goods - The date when you send them to your customer or the customer takes them away or for goods assembled at a suppliers premises, when the goods are made available to the customer Services - The date when the service is performed — it’s normally taken as the date when all the work except invoicing is completed Actual Tax Point The basic tax point will be overridden if an actual tax point is created. An actual tax point is created when: An invoice is issued or payment is received (whichever is first) before the basic tax point. An invoice is issued up to 14 days after the basic tax point You do not have to follow the 14 day rule, but if you decide not to you must tell HMRC by writing to the VAT Written Enquiries Team . If you wish to have an extension of the 14 day rule, then you must apply to HMRC by writing to the VAT Written Enquiries Team , giving your reasons. Note: Failure to tell HMRC about extending the 14 day rule will result in the tax point reverting to the basic tax point. Continuous Supplies of Services If you supply services on a continuous basis and receive payments regularly or from time to time, there’s a tax point every time you issue a VAT invoice, or receive a payment, whichever happens first. If payments are due to be made at regular intervals (for example, by banker’s order or direct debit), you can issue a VAT invoice at the start of any period of up to one year (provided that more than one payment is due in the period) to cover all the payments due in that period. For each payment you should set out the: VAT-exclusive amount Date on which the payment is due Rate of VAT VAT payable If you decide to do this, you do not have to account for tax on any payment until the date on which it is due, or date you receive it, whichever happens first. Your customer must not reclaim, as input tax, any VAT shown on the VAT invoice until the date on which the payment is due, or you have received the payment, whichever happens first. The same procedures apply to continuous supplies of goods, in the form of water, gas and electricity. Goods supplied on sale or return, approval or similar terms When you supply goods on sale or return, for example, they have not been sold and you still own them until such time as they’re adopted by your customer. Adoption means that the customer indicates a wish to keep them. Until your customer does so, your customer has an unqualified right to return them at any time, unless you have agreed a time limit. You may have fixed a time limit of adoption of less than 12 months from the date when the goods were sent. If a time limit has: Been fixed for a period of 12 months or less, then the Basic Tax Point is the date the time limit expires Not been fixed or fixed for a period of more than 12 months, then the Basic Tax Point is 12 months from the date when the goods were sent Note: In either case if your customer adopts the goods before the time limit expires the date of adoption becomes the basic tax point. Also the basis tax point as mentioned above will be overridden by the actual tax point on the date an invoice issued by the business providing the goods or the date payment is received for the goods, which ever is earlier. If you receive a payment which is not returnable, this will normally indicate that the goods have been adopted. The payment of a deposit required as a condition of delivery — which is repayable if the goods are returned — does not constitute adoption. Finally, It is a businesses responsibility to make sure that its customers notify them promptly when they have adopted goods. Goods taken for personal or other non-business use Goods that are taken out of a business: Permanently for non-business use will have a basic tax point on the date when the goods are taken or set aside for this purpose Temporarily for non-business use, but they’re still part of its stock or business assets, then a tax point is triggered each time they’re used or — if the non-business use continues over a period of time — on the last day of each tax period that the goods are used or made available for that purpose VAT Returns VAT Registered businesses that make supplies of goods and services are required to file their VAT returns to HMRC either monthly or quarterly (depending on VAT scheme) to pay over the Output VAT collected on sales to their customers and also to recover any Input VAT they have incurred on supplies they have purchased for operating their business. The difference between the Output VAT collected and the Input VAT incurred will form the basis as to whether VAT is payable or recoverable from HMRC. VAT collected on Sales greater than VAT incurred on purchases = Payment due to HMRC VAT incurred on purchases greater than VAT collected from customers = Recovery of VAT from HMRC Any exempt and zero rated supplies a firm makes to its customers or purchases from its suppliers also need to be included on the VAT Returns in boxes 6 and 7 respectively. Partial Exemption - VAT Recovery In addition to Output VAT that is collected by a business on its sales and then paid over to HMRC, businesses can also recover VAT on expenses they incur. The recovery of VAT depends highly on the nature of the supplies being made by the business. Business is only making Taxable Supplies (Standard rated, reduced rate or zero rated) - then the Input VAT incurred on its purchases is directly attributable to its taxable sales and can be fully recovered from HMRC. Business only makes Exempt Supplies - Then it cannot recover any of the input VAT incurred on purchases as the input VAT is directly attributable to supplies of exempt goods or services. Businesses making a mixture of Taxable and Exempt Supplies - This type of business is known as a partially exempt business and because not all of its supplies are taxable, it can only recover a calculated percentage of the input VAT it has incurred. Partially Exempt Businesses - will be required to calculate their partial exemption recovery percentage or rate and then apply this rate to their pool of input VAT that they have incurred. The standard method for calculating the partial exemption recovery rate is as follows: Taxable Sales (Standard, Zero, Reduced Rate) / Total Sales (Standard, Zero, Reduced Rate, Exempt) = VAT Recovery Rate Percentage % Example - Standard Rated Sales £1,000, Zero Rated Sales £500, Reduced Rated Sales £200 and Exempt Sales £2,000 £1,000 + £500 + £200 / £3,700 = 46 % RR If the input VAT pool is £20,000, then the business can recover £9,189 from HMRC via its VAT return. Note: Many larger and more complex businesses (such as banks) will have Partial Exemption Special Methods which will have been formulated specifically for their business and agreed with HMRC. Many businesses will have multiple internal business areas and products and as such using the standard method may not be suitable. Once formulated businesses will be required to adhere to their agreed Partial Exemption Special Methods and keep HMRC up to date on any internal business restructures that might affect the agreed method. HMRC - has the right to issue a Special Method Override where they believe the existing method in use does not produce a fair and reasonable level of VAT recovery. Annual Input VAT Adjustments As part of the VAT return process partially exempt businesses are required to complete annual Input VAT adjustments to ensure the correct amount of VAT has been recovered from HMRC for the overall year. Normally businesses will file quarterly VAT returns which include VAT recoverable for the quarter. The recovery of VAT on the quarterly returns will be based on the input VAT allocated between Taxable and Exempt sales for the quarter or based on the previous years VAT recovery rates which are being provisionally used for the current year until the annual adjustment is completed. So VAT returns completed during the year are actually provisional in terms of the recovery of VAT. As such at the end of the year input VAT recovery will need to be revisited to: Review how input VAT has been used in the business to see if there has been any change in use. (Taxable / Exempt) Recalculate VAT Recovery Rates based on the current years sales data Review input VAT allocations to different areas of the business Once the above process has been completed, the recalculated input VAT recovery for the whole year will then be compared with the input VAT reclaimed on the quarterly returns. Any under or over recovery of VAT will then be refunded or repaid to HMRC normally via the first VAT return of the following year. From a business perspective, it maybe important to carry out mid year reviews of the VAT recovery by looking at aspects such as actual VAT incurred and Actual VAT recovery rates so as to not have large swings in irrecoverable VAT which can affect P&L where the input VAT throughput is significant. (Most relevant to partially exempt businesses where VAT recovery is high). Reverse Charges Where firms purchase services from non UK suppliers that would normally have VAT applied in the UK, they will have to self account for reverse charge VAT in the UK. The purpose of this measure is to ensure UK companies have a level playing field competitively and as such ensure companies do not make their purchases abroad just to avoid paying 20% VAT. The following purchases would attract Reverse Charge VAT Legal and Accountancy services Software Advertising Consultancy For example if a UK company purchased legal services from a company in France for £1,000 then the UK company would have to include £200 on its UK VAT return as output VAT and will equally it will able to include £200 as recoverable input VAT. Note: as mentioned under partial exemption above, the level of input VAT recoverable by a business will depend on the type of sales it makes. If a firm only makes taxable (standard and zero rated supplies), then it will be able to recover the full £200 reverse charge VAT which is payable to HMRC. In this case, as the reverse charge VAT payable is equal to the reverse charge VAT recoverable and as such there is nothing to pay HMRC. If the firm also made exempt supplies to it's customers and the French legal fee charge was not related to a specific taxable supply being made by the UK company, then it would only be able to recover a portion of the £200 reverse charge VAT based on its Partial Exemption Recovery rate. On its VAT return the business would enter £200 in box 1 (Output VAT) and £200 in box 4 (input VAT recoverable) and thus box 5 ( VAT payable of recoverable from HMRC ) would be nil. The net values of the services would go in box 6 (net outputs) and (net inputs) respectively. For more information on reverse charges, please click on reverse charge button on the home page. Pre VAT Registration Expenses Where a business buys goods or services before it registers for VAT, to support taxable business activities when it is registered, it can recover the tax provided that: in the case of goods (either stock for resale or fixed assets), the goods remain on hand at the date of registration and will be used in the newly registered business. These goods must have been bought within the time limits that are set out in regulation 111; for businesses with a registration date after 1 April 2010 the time limit will be 4 years in the case of services the supply was made not more than six months before the date of registration. Six months represents a period in which it is deemed that services obtained will relate to business activity carried on at the time of registration. Tax incurred on goods on hand at registration (other than capital items - see below) cannot be deducted if the VAT was incurred outside of the time limits set out in regulation 111. This includes VAT incurred on services performed on those goods. If a business is given a backdated registration date this becomes the relevant date for working out the extent of the time limits. Businesses are not required to reduce the VAT deducted in respect of pre-registration use of fixed assets. For example, VAT incurred on a van purchased three years before registration and used before and after registration would be recoverable in full, subject to the normal rules on VAT deduction. You can only reclaim VAT on purchases for the business now registered for VAT. They must relate to your ‘business purpose’. This means they must relate to VAT taxable goods or services that you supply. Please see below HMRC link for more information.

VAT News - June 2026 - HMRC Update on VAT Recovery for funded Occupational Pension Schemes HMRC have updated their guidance on the recovery of input VAT incurred directly by the employer in relation to its funded occupational pension scheme as follows: Input tax incurred by an employer on services provided in relation to its funded occupational pension scheme will be the employer’s input tax. This input tax is considered an overhead, as it is directly linked to the employer’s business as a whole. It is therefore recoverable in full, subject to any partial exemption restrictions. This treatment is the same whether the costs incurred relate to administration or management of the scheme’s investments. If the employer contracts directly with a provider of fund management services, then it can deduct the input tax incurred, with the normal evidential requirements, such as an invoice in its name (an invoice ‘care of’ will be acceptable for this requirement, and alternative evidence may be considered in line with guidance at VIT31200). Invoices correctly made out to a Trustee, and not the Employer may not be re-issued to the sponsoring employer, in line with normal VAT invoicing rules. Any input tax on them is the Trustees to be deducted in line with their Partial Exemption recovery position. If the contract for management services is between the fund manager and the trustees, then for the employer to deduct, the trustees should make a taxable charge to the employer for their services of running the scheme on the employer’s behalf. The employer will then be able to deduct input tax on this charge. As per normal VAT rules, issuing an invoice which is not paid does not give a right to recovery. A payment must be made; an agreement to make contributions does not provide proof of payment of VAT invoices. There are two routes for an employer to evidence that they paid the costs of running a scheme: Invoices from the fund managers issued to the employer directly which they paid or deducted from the pension pot; either is acceptable as long as the employer holds an invoice and can evidence the payment; or The Trustees of the scheme incurred all of the costs (unable to recover because they did not incur costs for their taxable business activity) and raise a taxable charge for managing the scheme to the employer, so that they hold a valid invoice.

The EU countries include: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Republic of Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden. Value Added Tax (VAT) The Value Added Tax (VAT) is a consumption tax levied on nearly all goods and services bought and sold and brought into the EU and is ultimately borne by the final consumer. VAT is charged, at the applicable rate, on the sales price of the goods or services. VAT is collected at each stage along the supply chain. It is charged on the value added to goods and services at each stage of production and distribution based on a standard set of invoicing rules. Each EU country is responsible for setting their own VAT rates but the standard rate cannot be less than 15% and the reduced rates cannot be less than 5%. VAT-registered businesses can deduct the VAT they have incurred on purchases from other EU & Non EU businesses from the VAT they have collected from businesses they have sold goods or services to. This means where a business makes purely taxable sales (not Exempt) they are tax neutral in that there is no VAT loss or P&L VAT cost. To calculate VAT on the net sale price in a EU country, please use our Note: VAT is not charged on exports to countries outside the EU. VAT in The Digital Age (VIDA) Europe VAT in The Digital Age is an EU package adopted in March 2025 which aims to modernise the VAT system in line with digitalisation, reduce fraud and make the system more efficient for businesses. The package is made up of 3 main pillars with an implementation timeline between 2025 to 2035 an include: Real time Digital Reporting Requirements for cross border (B2B) EU trade based on e-Invoicing using structured electronic invoices for real-time digital reporting.The timelines for implementation are (a) 14 April 2025 - EU Member States can introduce mandatory domestic e invoicing without requiring EU approval (b) 1 July 2030, E-invoicing will become mandatory for all cross-border B2B transactions in the EU. (c) 1 January 2035, all domestic e invoicing and reporting must align with the EU standard. Platform Economy - There will be new rules for online platforms in the short-term accommodation rental and passenger transport sectors. Platforms facilitating supplies in the passenger transport and short-term accommodation sectors will become responsible for collecting and remitting VAT to tax authorities when their users do not, for example because they are a small business or individual providers. This will become effective from 1 July 2028. Single VAT Registration - Building on the already existing ‘VAT One Stop Shop’ (OSS) model for e-commerce, the proposals would allow more businesses selling to consumers in another EU country to fulfil their VAT obligations via an online portal in one EU country. Further measures to improve the collection of VAT include making the ‘Import One Stop Shop’ (IOSS) mandatory for certain platforms facilitating sales by persons established outside the EU to consumers in the EU. This will become effective from 1 July 2028. In May 2026, the European Commission has published the work programme for VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA), covering implementation activities planned for 2026. See link to information : VAT in the Digital Age: 2026 Work Programme available EU Cross Border Refunds for EU Businesses EU businesses can claim and obtain refunds of VAT incurred in performance of their business in other EU member states where they do not supply goods and services.and are not VAT registered there. So in effect, businesses should not have been based in the respective EU Member State during the period the refund claim relates to, or supplied goods and services (including to customers required to apply the reverse charge procedure). Requests for refunds must be made to the claimants own country Tax Authority via their online portal where they will be checked for their validity and the claimants identity and VAT registration number will also be verified. Once verified, claims will be forwarded by the businesses Tax Authority to the Member State where the VAT was incurred provided: The claimant is a taxable person Does not supply only exempt goods and services Is not covered by the special scheme for small business Is not covered by the flat rate scheme for Farmers For more information on the refund procedure, see the Summary of VAT refund procedure Source; European Commission EU Changes From 1 January 2025 Place of supply for Virtual / live Streamed Events On 1 January 2025 EU VAT rules change for businesses providing virtual and streaming services for conferences, distant learning and other live events streamed online (with a fee for viewing). From 1 Jan 2025, EU countries must apply the 'where services are consumed' rule and VAT will be accountable in the country of the recipient of these services. This change basically aligns the VAT treatment of virtual services with electronically supplied / digital services. Currently the general B2C rule applies - so VAT is due the supplier's country. Businesses in the EU providing these services will need to update their billing systems to reflect this change so that VAT will not be applied locally. Recipients of these services will need to ensure they account for VAT locally on these services. Small Business (SME) VAT Exemption Scheme From 1 January 2025, the special VAT regime (the SME scheme) allows small enterprises to: sell goods and services without charging VAT to their customers (VAT exemption) and, alleviate their VAT compliance obligations. Small enterprises choosing VAT exemption will lose the right to deduct VAT on goods and services used to make exempt supplies. Who Can Benefit Any small enterprise with a total annual turnover of no more than EUR 100 000 (or the equivalent in national currency) in all Member States in the current calendar year and in the previous calendar year are eligible for the VAT exemption in its Member State of establishment (MSEST) and/or in other Member State(s) under the cross-border SME scheme. This is applicable only if the Member State concerned has implemented the scheme in its national legislation. The SME scheme is optional. Non-EU small enterprises cannot apply the SME scheme. In the context of the SME scheme, small enterprises established in the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland, are non-EU small enterprises. New Maximum for National Annual Threshold The maximum national annual threshold set by Member States under which small enterprises can VAT exempt their supplies of goods and services under the SME scheme (domestic and cross-border) is EUR 85 000 (or the equivalent in national currency). Member States have the possibility to set more than one national annual threshold. These are called ‘sectoral thresholds’. In case a small enterprise can benefit from more than one sectoral threshold, the tax authorities will, based on its activities, inform the small enterprise about the threshold to use since only one threshold can be applied per taxable person. Cross Border Application Small enterprises established in another Member State than where VAT is due can VAT exempt their supplies (cross-border), in the same way that small enterprises established in that Member State already can for domestic transactions. This will help place all small enterprises on an equal footing, whether they are based in that Member State or not. For more information please use this link - VAT rules for small enterprises Distant Selling - VAT Rules The distance selling VAT rules in the EU require businesses selling physical goods online or via mail order including digital services to consumers (business to consumers - B2C) in other EU countries to apply the VAT rate of the buyer's destination country once their total EU wide cross-border sales exceed €10,000 per year. However, provided a businesses EU wide sales do not exceed €10,000 per year, they should charge the VAT rate applicable in their own local EU country for such distant sales. Where the €10,000 per year threshold is exceeded, then EU VAT registered businesses should use the Union (OSS) Scheme (see below) to allow them to register and pay for VAT in one EU country for all EU wide sales. The EU One Stop One Stop Shop Scheme The EU One Stop Shop scheme allows online sellers, including online marketplaces and platforms to register in one EU Member State (member state of identification) for the declaration and payment of VAT on all distance sales of goods and cross-border supplies of services to consumers within all EU member states. This option therefore removes the need for online sellers / marketplaces / platforms to register and declare VAT in each EU country where they have made distant sales. This therefore reduces the administrative burden for taxable businesses making cross border sales from outside or within the EU. The One Stop Shop consists of three optional schemes namely Non-Union (OSS) Scheme - Is for Non EU Businesses (Company, Partnership, Sole Trader) that do not have an established place of business in the EU or a fixed establishment in the EU and provide Business to Consumer (B2C) services in the EU such as accommodation, transportation, admission to events Union (OSS) Scheme - Is for EU e-commerce businesses that have an established place of business in EU or have a fixed establishment) selling B2C goods or services within the EU. Services such as telecommunications, broadcasting, or electronically supplied services and intra-Community distance sales of goods. Import (IOSS) Scheme. Is for EU established or non EU established businesses that sell low value goods of up to 150 euros imported into the EU. Note - for businesses that are not established in the EU, are required to appoint a representative or intermediary before they can use the IOSS scheme. Registration for IOSS To use the Import One-Stop Shop, the company carrying out distance sales of goods imported from third territories, or third countries must register in the Member State where it has established its business, or, if it has established its business outside the Community, in one of the Member States where it has a fixed establishment. There are no VAT advantages in choosing one Member State over the other. VAT Return A taxable person using the IOSS is required to submit a monthly VAT to the Member State of Identification detailing: Total taxable amount for each product supplied to each Member State in which the dispatch or transport of the goods to the customer ends. VAT amount 3) VAT rate The import declaration shall contain the valid IOSS Identification number of the taxable person or of the appointed Intermediary established in the Union. Member State of Identification tax authorities provide the VAT return information to each Member State mentioned on the VAT return in which the dispatch or transport of the goods to the customer ends. VAT Payments The company pays the VAT declared in its VAT return, to the Member State of Identification tax authorities. Member State of Identification distributes the VAT to the Member States mentioned on the VAT return. Registration Process Direct Registration in the Member State of Establishment Any taxable person who carries out distance sales of goods imported into the EU from a third territory or a third country in consignments with an intrinsic value not exceeding EUR 150 can register for the Import scheme. If that person has no establishment in the EU, they need to appoint an Intermediary to be able to use the scheme. For the Import scheme, the Member State of Identification is the Member State in which the taxable person has established their business. About the Intermediary Taxable persons, suppliers, and electronic interfaces, which are not established in the EU or in a third country with which the EU has concluded a VAT mutual assistance agreement, need to appoint an Intermediary to be able to use the Import scheme. Other taxable persons, the ones established in the EU, are free to appoint an Intermediary, but are not obliged to do so. The Intermediary needs to be a taxable person established in the EU. They must fulfil all obligations laid down in the Import scheme for the supplier or electronic interface that appointed them, including the submission of IOSS VAT returns and payment of VAT on the distance sales of imported low value goods. Direct registration with Intermediary and in the Member State of Identification If the taxable person has not established their business in the EU, the Member State of Identification is a Member State in which the taxable person has a fixed establishment. Where the taxable person has more than one fixed establishment, that taxable person can choose any Member State in which they have a fixed establishment to be their Member State of Identification. I f the taxable person is established outside the EU, but in a third country with which the EU has concluded an agreement on mutual assistance for the recovery of VAT and makes distance sales of imported goods from that third country, they are free to choose any Member State as Member State of Identification. In this case, there is no need to appoint an Intermediary to be able to use the Import scheme.
