When Should You Register for VAT?

VAT registration becomes mandatory when your business’s taxable turnover exceeds £85,000 in a rolling 12-month period. However, many businesses choose to register for VAT online before reaching this threshold due to the benefits it provides.

Mandatory Registration Scenarios:

• Your annual taxable turnover exceeds £85,000.
• Your business is based outside the UK, selling goods to UK customers.
• You expect to surpass the VAT threshold within the next 30 days.

Voluntary Registration: Registering voluntarily can enhance your business’s credibility, as being VAT-registered often gives the impression of a larger, well-established UK company. Additionally, it allows businesses to reclaim VAT on business-related purchases, improving cash flow and reducing overall expenses.
