Value Added Tax (VAT) is a tax on goods and services that most businesses in the UK must charge if their taxable turnover exceeds £90,000 in any 12-month period. Registration becomes mandatory within 30 days of breaching this threshold. However, even if you're under the limit, voluntary VAT registration may still be financially beneficial. It allows businesses to reclaim input VAT on purchases and can give an impression of legitimacy and scale to customers and partners. VAT rules, however, are notoriously complex, involving different schemes, strict compliance deadlines, and varying treatment based on industry. That’s why businesses across Scotland trust Malik AccounTax Ltd — to ensure they're making informed decisions about registration, scheme selection, and compliance.
