VAT


Your filing and payment deadlines for VAT are dependant on your VAT accounting period and whether you are part of a simplification scheme (for example, the VAT Annual Accounting Scheme). You can check your upcoming VAT return and payment deadlines in your VAT online account or by using this online tool.
