VAT Returns
VAT accountants supporting businesses across the UK
Businesses registered for Value Added Tax (VAT) are required to calculate, report and submit VAT returns to HMRC, usually every quarter. VAT reporting involves tracking sales and purchases, applying the correct VAT treatment and ensuring returns are filed accurately and on time. Incorrect VAT reporting can lead to penalties, assessments or cashflow issues.
At Treggena Ltd, we support VAT-registered businesses across the North East and throughout the UK with clear, reliable VAT return services. We ensure VAT is calculated correctly, submissions are compliant and businesses understand their VAT position and obligations.
Who needs VAT returns prepared?
VAT-registered businesses
All registered businesses must submit periodic VAT returns.
Growing businesses exceeding thresholds
Businesses above the VAT threshold must register and report.
Limited companies
Companies with taxable supplies require VAT reporting.
Sole traders and partnerships
Self-employed businesses registered for VAT need returns.
Businesses on VAT schemes
Flat Rate or other schemes still require compliant filing.
How VAT returns work
VAT returns summarise the VAT charged on sales and the VAT paid on business purchases over a reporting period. The difference between these amounts determines whether VAT is payable to HMRC or reclaimable by the business. Returns are submitted digitally under Making Tax Digital requirements and must be supported by accurate transaction records.
Because VAT rules vary depending on supplies, sectors and schemes, correct treatment is essential. Proper preparation ensures transactions are categorised accurately, schemes are applied correctly and reporting remains compliant with HMRC regulations.
