A CLEAR STARTING POINT
Choose the right VAT support
VAT services connect registration, day-to-day records, periodic returns and specialist advice. This overview helps you choose the work your business needs. Each detailed service page explains its own scope; you do not need every service simply because your business is VAT-registered.

Build a workable engagement
01
Start with your actual position
Bring your business activities, registration status and immediate concern. A new business may need an eligibility review; an established registrant may need reliable recurring filing or help with one unusual transaction.
02
Agree who does what
Confirm who supplies source documents, resolves questions, approves the return and arranges payment. A service agreement should distinguish routine compliance from separately scoped advice or authority correspondence.
03
Keep the evidence connected
A return should be traceable to sales, purchases, imports and adjustments. Missing documents and unexplained balances should be visible in a query log, not silently carried into the next period.
Which service fits your situation?
| Your need | Main purpose | Starting point |
|---|---|---|
| Ongoing compliance | Recurring period-end records and returns | Choose VAT return filing |
| Technical question | Treatment of a contract or transaction | Choose VAT advisory |
| Planned change | New market, product or operating model | Choose VAT impact assessment |
What to prepare
Start with a record inventory. Share sensitive documents only through an agreed secure channel—not the public enquiry form.
- Trade licence, business activities and VAT registration details if registered
- Sales and purchase records for the relevant period
- Bank, import and adjustment information relevant to the assignment
- Previous returns and any FTA correspondence
Frequently asked questions
Where should a new business start?
Start with a review of registration eligibility and record-keeping arrangements. Do not assume that every business has the same registration obligation or that obtaining a licence completes VAT compliance.
Does a VAT registration include filing services?
Not automatically. Registration establishes the profile; return preparation, review and submission support are separate tasks to include explicitly in the engagement.
Is a compliance review an FTA audit?
No. An adviser’s scoped review is different from an examination by the authority. It does not guarantee that every error will be found or prevent an authority enquiry.
Can I engage you for only one VAT issue?
Yes. Define the question, relevant period and required output. A one-off assignment may be more appropriate than a recurring service when the remaining compliance work is already managed.
