As a small bookkeeper I only process the VAT for 3 clients. They all file their own VAT Returns. I calculate, they check it and submit it. With MTD looming, I have VT Transaction+, if I was to offer to file the returns for them, my understanding is that I would need an Agent Service Account via HMRC. I've co...

Got a receipt for concrete that has the VAT breakdown but no VAT no. I've been on the Company website and they have the VAT no displayed there. I assume I'm ok to write the no on the receipt and claim it.

One of my clients will not be trading the Ltd Co this next year due to franchise prohibitions. With regards to VAT is it best to do nil returns or de-register until she starts trading again?

Hi - my client held a competition and paid £500 for a giftcard for the winner. No money was paid to enter the competition. Can my client claim the VAT back on the purchase of the giftcard?

I'm a bookkeeper for a small enterprise and I'm a bit confused as to when I'm required to submit a VAT return via MTD software.

A couple of clients have mentioned applying for a mortgage, albeit too late in the tax year for me to suggest getting their 2017/18 accounts done by a chartered accountant.
