HMRC Admin 19 Response

Hi,
If work is carried out on a property which has been empty for more than 2 years then lanscaping and professional services would be 20% VAT. Please see the guidance below:
Reduced rating the renovation or alteration of empty residential premises
Thank you.

Hi,
Your taxable turnover for VAT registration purposes is the total of your taxable supplies you make in the UK. If you are being charged commission by other businesses then this is not your turnover as these would constitute purchases. You can see the guidance here:
VATREG02300 - Basic principles of registration: meaning of taxable turnover
Working out whether you need to register
Thank you.

Hi,
It is difficult to comment on the VAT rules of a different country.
There would be specific rules for a Dutch company exporting goods and if these rules are met then they would be able to zero rate the export of the goods to the UK. When the goods arrive in the UK then there will be import VAT charges to pay on the goods. You can see guidance here:
Paying VAT on imports from outside the UK to Great Britain and from outside the EU to Northern Ireland
You would need to contact the Dutch company regarding the liability of the Dutch VAT and the rules which they would have to follow in order to treat this as a zero rated Dutch export.
Thank you.

Hi,
We would say that the guidance would still stand in this scenario:
VATSC11534 - Supply: Direction of supplies: Payment of another party’s legal costs: Agreement with the Law Society's Revenue Law Committee on VAT in respect of third party cost payments
This would mean that the debtor would only be responsible for paying the net amount of your professional fees and your client would be able to recover the VAT element of this if they are a fully taxable business.
Thank you.

Hi,
If you are a NETP and selling goods to UK consumers via a marketplace and the value of the goods is under £135 then the marketplace have the reposonsibilty to account for the VAT.
If you sell goods from a UK wharehouse via a marketplace then the marketplace are responsible for the VAT regardless of the value of the goods. You can see the guidance here:
Outline of the changes
You can backdate your VAT registration up to 4 years.
As long as you are a NETP then there will be no VAT to account for by your business as this will be done via the marketplace.
You are entitled to recover VAT incurred on your purchases from the date of your registration as long as the conditions are met as per the guidance here:
Introduction to input tax
Thank you.
