Frequently Asked Questions
When do I need to register for VAT?
You must register if your VAT taxable turnover exceeds £85,000 in any rolling 12-month period. You can also register voluntarily below this threshold if it benefits your business.
How long does VAT registration take?
Once submitted, HMRC typically processes VAT applications within 2–4 weeks. Errors on the form can cause significant delays, which is why professional preparation is important.
Can I register for VAT as a non-UK resident?
Yes. Non-resident companies trading in the UK can and often must register for UK VAT. Our service is designed specifically for international businesses.
What VAT scheme will I be on?
During the assessment, we'll advise on the best VAT scheme for your business, whether that's Standard VAT, Flat Rate, or Cash Accounting.
Does this include filing VAT returns?
This service covers registration only. VAT return filing is handled through our accounting packages.
Why is professional help important for VAT registration?
HMRC rejects or delays many VAT applications due to errors on the form. Mistakes can hold up your VAT number for weeks. Our specialists ensure your application is accurate and complete the first time.
