VAT Returns

VAT Returns are a declaration of the VAT a business owes to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) or is owed by HMRC. All VAT-registered businesses are required to submit VAT returns on a regular basis (usually quarterly). The return includes the total amount of VAT charged on sales (output VAT) and the total amount of VAT paid on purchases (input VAT). The difference between the two is either paid to HMRC or refunded by HMRC.

The key difference with using ourselves rather than another firm of accountants is that you can access a wide range of additional services which will enable us to look after all your financial needs under one roof.
