VAT registration: when you must, and when you should

You must register for VAT once your taxable turnover passes the threshold. Some businesses benefit from registering earlier.

When registration is compulsory

Keep an eye on your rolling twelve-month turnover. Once it passes the current threshold, you have a limited time to register.

When registering early helps

If most of your customers are VAT-registered businesses, registering early lets you reclaim VAT on costs without raising prices for them.
