Hello,
I have concerned about how tax point will be treated in company, which is not VAT registered. I found VAT Notice 700, but it is only about VAT registered business.
What will be tax point in case, when services was provided in August, but the invoice was issued on 10th of September? Is should be 31st of August or 10th of September?
Best Regards

Hi
If a VAT invoice is raised prior to the basic tax point or raised within 14 days after the basic tax point then the VAT invoice will create the tax point as per the guidance at:
VAT guide (VAT Notice 700) section 14
However a company which is not VAT registered can't raise a VAT invoice  and so the invoice date won't have an effect on the tax point.
The tax point will therefore be when the service is provided unless a payment is received before this date.
Guidance is avaikable at:  VATTOS3800 - Identifying a tax point: supplies by those not registered for VAT - HMRC internal manual
Thank you
