Should you register your business for VAT?
  • Many business owners generally misunderstand VAT.
    While some are obliged to register for VAT, while
    others can opt to do so of their own accord. So,
    why might registering for VAT be a good idea, and
    when should you register?

What is VAT?
  • VAT stands for value-added tax and it adds to the
    cost of nearly everything you buy in the UK. If
    you have a business, you may be required to
    register for and collect VAT. So it is considered
    a good idea to get a handle on what VAT is and
    how it works.

When do you have to register for VAT?
  • When to register?
  • You must go for VAT registration if your VAT
    taxable turnover goes over 85,000), or you know
    that it will. Your total VAT taxable revenue is
    the total of everything sold that is not VAT
    exempt. You can also register voluntarily.

Compulsory registration
  • You must register for VAT
  • If you assume that your VAT payable revenue is
    going to be more than 85,000 in the next 30-day
    period.
  • If your business had a VAT payable turnover of
    more than 85,000 for last 12 months.
  • You may require to register in some other
    possible cases, depending on the kinds of goods
    or services you sell and where you sell them.
  • If you will exceed the VAT threshold in the next
    30-day period.
  • You have to do registration by the end of that
    30-day period. Your effective due date of
    registration is the date you expected, not the
    date your turnover went over the threshold.

What happens if you fail for VAT registration?
  • In some cases, if you fail for VAT register at
    the given appropriate duration, you could be
    bound for a late registration penalty charge.
    Ignorance is not an acceptable case to prevent
    penalty charges. The longer the duration that you
    have failed for VAT registration, the greater the
    charges will be. Moreover, a penalty could get
    canceled or reduced if you would be able to
    provide the proof of genuine reasons which
    prevented you from registration on time.
