If a business signs up to the Flat Rate Vat scheme am I correct in saying that turnover from services supplied to overseas business are excluded from the turnover as they are outside the scope of UK Vat (section 6.3 VAT notice 733)? The software I use does not show outside the scope income in box 6 on the VAT return, how do I overcome this as the normal answer so to record the income as zero rated but if I do that the turnover will be included in the flat rate scheme calculation?

Hi Claire Whiter,
You would need to discuss this with your software provider. They may have a code or a workaround that will enable you to overcome this issue. 
Thank you.

Thank you, can you confirm that my first assumption is correct: that turnover from services supplied to overseas business are excluded from the turnover as they are outside the scope of UK Vat (section 6.3 VAT notice 733)?
