VAT threshold

Watch your sales over a rolling 12 months against the registration threshold you are tracking, with a warning as you get close, a figure per quarter, and a tick to leave a sale out. A running total to look at, never a VAT return.

In short

This page is a running total to help you watch a number. It is not a VAT return, it does not work out any VAT you owe, and it knows nothing about margin schemes, the flat rate scheme or second-hand goods. Check anything you act on with an accountant.
