VAT AND INDIRECT TAX

Your entire VAT lifecycle, not only the returns.

Registration, returns, health checks, disclosures, refunds and FTA support, managed as one continuous obligation.

Most VAT problems are not caused by a late return. They are caused by treatment decided transaction by transaction, invoices that do not meet the requirements, and historic periods nobody has reviewed. Finsync manages the lifecycle rather than the deadline.

WHAT IS INCLUDED

Eight deliverables across the VAT lifecycle.

Transaction-specific advice sits next to the filing work, so treatment is decided when the transaction happens rather than reconstructed at return time.

◆VAT registration and deregistration
◆Monthly and quarterly VAT returns
◆VAT health checks and historical reviews
◆Voluntary disclosures
◆VAT refunds
◆Transaction-specific VAT advice
◆VAT grouping
◆FTA queries and audit support
HOW IT RUNS

Register, review, file, correct.

The review step is the one most often skipped, and it is the one that surfaces errors before the FTA does.

01
Register
VAT registration against taxable turnover and the nature of the supplies, or deregistration where thresholds are no longer met.
02
Review
VAT health checks and historical reviews, including input and output treatment and tax-invoice compliance.
03
File
Monthly or quarterly VAT returns prepared from reconciled records, with VAT grouping handled where relevant.
04
Correct
Voluntary disclosures, refund claims, and FTA queries and audit support.
WITHOUT IT
—Treatment decided at return time, under pressure
—Historic periods never reviewed
—Errors found by the FTA rather than by you
—Refunds left unclaimed
WITH FINSYNC
◆Transaction-specific advice as decisions arise
◆Health checks and historical reviews on record
◆Voluntary disclosures made on your terms
◆Refund claims prepared and supported
COMMON QUESTIONS

VAT, answered briefly.

Answered briefly here. A consultation covers the detail for your own structure and period.

A VAT return being prepared

Registration depends on taxable turnover and the nature of the supplies made. Finsync handles registration and deregistration as part of the VAT service, so the assessment and the filing sit with the same team.

WORKS WITH

Most files need two or three areas at once.

These are the areas this work usually runs alongside. One team covers all nine, so the work moves between them without moving between firms.
