Hi,

Tax may be deducted automatically but you can apply for relief.

Double Taxation: UK-France (SI 2009 Number 226) (Form France-Individual)

Thank you.

Hi,

You will need to check our approved list to see if relief is due on your union subscriptions.

Approved learned societies and professional organisations (List 3)

There is no allowance/susistance to claim for lunches as you would still need to supply this whether in an office or not. You can claim for laundry if you wear a logo'd uniform. This should be claimed on the employment section of your return.

Thank you.

Hi,

If it is a property in the UK you may have a gain to report and pay.

Hi,

If the business purchases goods or services in the course of business then it should appear in box 7 even if the VAT is not eligible to claimed as input tax.
As regards what is needs to go in box 7 please see the guidance below:

How to fill in each box on your return

For purchases and outgoings which do not appear on the VAT return these shouldn't be classed as exempt but rather no VAT or Outside The Scope.

Thank you.

Hi,

If you are making supplies between companies in different countries then a supply is still taking place so should be reported in box 6 of the VAT return.

Thank you.

Hi,

If you import goods from overseas and you are the importer of record then the goods will be yours when they enter the UK. If you then sell these goods to your customers then you will be making a taxable supply.

As you are making taxable supplies both as a bulider and an importer then you can register for VAT voluntarily and then have an entitlement to recover the VAT as input tax.

Please see the guidance below:

Introduction to input tax

Working out whether you need to register

As you are a sole trader then all of your supplies will then come under this VAT number and you will need to charge VAT on your construction supplies as well as the sale of goods which you have imported.

Thank you.

Hi,

There is a requirement to register for VAT if you are makung taxable supplies in the UK which are above the threshold of £85k. To determine your turnover you need to determine whether you are actually making taxable supplies in the UK.

If you are supplying services then it will depend who and where your customer is.

If your customer is an intermediary and they are based in the UK then this will be a taxable supply to the intermediary.

If your customer is the intermediary and they are based overseas then the supply will be Ouside The Scope Of UK VAT and hence no requirement to register for VAT.

Please see the guidance below:

The place of supply rules for services

Working out whether you need to register

You would only need to apply for an Exemption to registration if you are making zero rated supplies.

If you are making supplies which are Outside the Scope of VAT thern there is no requirement to apply for this.

Thank you.
