Hello My friend runs a small company. The company imports goods from outside the UK and then sells them to a Middleman based in America. However, the goods are kept stored in the UK warehouse. This middleman sells the goods to an American company, which sells them only in the UK on Amazon. So, this American company collects the goods from the UK warehouse directly. The turnover of my friend's company is over £100,000. My question is if the company needs to register VAT ? When issuing the sales invoices to American middlemen, does Vat need to be added? Thanks Grace

Hello My friend is running an SPV company that mainly buys a couple of residential properties and rents them out to students. The rent income is over £90,000. Shall his company register VAT exemption, or does it not need to register VAT? Thanks Grace

Good afternoon I am managing the property for my friend, who used to live in the UK and left the UK one year ago. Here is her case: 1, holds a Chinese passport 2. lives in China. 3. receives the rental income every month. 4. has applied for a non-resident landlord scheme. I am wondering if she is allowed to get a personal allowance according to the double-taxation agreement between the UK and China ? Thanks Grace

Dear all I have asked my agent to register VAT for my business, and now I need to submitted VAT return, but I cannot do it because the VAT was registered by agent account, they are not given a gateway account. how could I get the gateway account back without it I cannot submit my VAT account. now HMRC estimate a box 5 figure made me never pass the security check. The VAT return is very late, though I tried few times to contact HMRC, but as I cannot pass the security check I never get the account back. What do I do now that so many letters coming to me to ask me to pay the fine for the late filling and estimated vat tax. thank you
