VAT Returns FAQs
What happens if I file a VAT return late?
Each late return earns a penalty point. Reach the threshold for your filing frequency and a £200 penalty applies.
What if I pay VAT late?
A 3% penalty applies on tax unpaid at day 15, another 3% at day 30, then a daily rate of 10% a year until paid, plus interest.
Can I register voluntarily below £90,000?
Yes, and it can help if most of your customers are VAT-registered businesses.
Do you work outside Manchester city centre?
Yes — all ten Greater Manchester boroughs, mostly online.
