About UK VAT Registration & MTD Returns
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
A UK business must register for VAT when taxable turnover exceeds £90,000 in a rolling 12-month period, or is expected to in the next 30 days. Non-established businesses making taxable supplies in the UK must register from the first sale. VAT returns are usually quarterly and filed through Making Tax Digital-compatible software. The standard rate is 20%.
Services bought from India by a UK business are usually subject to the reverse charge, and services supplied by a UK company to Indian clients are often outside the scope of UK VAT — the place of supply rules decide.
We register, set up MTD software and file returns with partner UK accountants.
| Threshold | £90,000 rolling 12 months |
