VAT Returns in Pontefract
When VAT was first introduced we were told it was a simple tax. Now, over 40 years later it has got so complex that even the government has started a consultation process to try to simplify the position.
Despite this accepted complexity VAT registered businesses have to regularly submit an accurate VAT return, usually every three months. Deadlines for sending VAT returns are one month and seven days after your VAT period ends but there are some exceptions. Failure to submit VAT returns and make payment on time can result in surcharges or penalties from HMRC.
If HMRC find that there are errors in a return they will charge interest and also penalties of up to 100% of the error. If you are a VAT registered business you should work with a qualified accountant who can take care of VAT returns for you. You must register for VAT if your sales in a twelve month period are greater than the limit set (currently £85,000). If you do not register at the correct time you may again have to pay penalties to HMRC.
