What are VAT returns, and why are they important for your business?
VAT returns are a regular report that businesses registered for VAT must submit to Revenue, detailing the VAT charged on sales and paid on purchases. They are important because they ensure your business remains compliant with tax laws, allowing you to either pay the VAT due or reclaim any overpaid VAT. Proper VAT reporting helps avoid penalties and interest charges while ensuring your business operates smoothly.
How often do you need to submit VAT returns for your business?
The frequency of VAT returns depends on your business’s turnover and the VAT scheme you are on. Typically, businesses must submit VAT returns on a bi-monthly basis (every two months), but certain businesses may be required to file quarterly or annually. Our team at O’Riordan Chartered Accountants can help determine the best filing schedule for your business and ensure deadlines are met.
