I have my own company but a client can only pay me as an individual
I am self employed via my own company, which is VAT registered. I am the only employee of the company and I work for multiple clients doing consulting. A new client (that is based overseas in Hong Kong, if that is relevant, my other clients are UK based) can only contract with me as an individual, not a company. If I invoice them personally for the work, can I still get the money paid into my business account, record the revenue in my company and use my company VAT number to pay the VAT? The combined money from this client and all my other clients will take me over the VAT threshold.
