From April 1st 2010, if your company has an annual turnover of £100,000 or more excluding VAT you will have to submit your VAT return online and pay your VAT electronically.

 If you are an existing client of PCBS then you will be familiar with this procedure already as we complete this transaction for most of our clients. If however you are unfamiliar or unsure that this is something you would feel confident in, then give us a call and we will submit your returns for you. All you will need to do is authorise us to complete the work. We can then carry this out regularly for you without your input, so you can carry on running your business instead of lying awake at night worrying about the VAT return !
