RE: Making employer contribution to a SIPP as a sole director.
Hi S Rowe,
We are unable to advise what expenses are deductible or not.
Corporation Tax is self-assessed and it will be up to you to review the guidance and reach a decision. Please refer back to the guidance at:
CTM08340 - Corporation Tax: management expenses: pension contributions: contents - HMRC internal manual
If your still unsure please refer to an accountant.
Thank you -

I'm sorry that your issue has not been resolved and this is greatly effecting your business
There is a known issue regarding the validity of VAT numbers on the online VAT checker.
Could you please call our Helpline again as we do need to pass your VAT details over to the Team who are urgently investigating these cases

RE: Online tutoring VAT
Hi gatheolo212,
The way in which the service is delivered will determine the Place of Supply of the service and the VAT liability.
Where an educational service involves the pupil interacting with a computer and there is minimal human involvement, the supply may be an electronically supplied service.
Please see the guidance at:
Place of supply of educational services
VAT rules for supplies of digital services to consumers
The place of supply of digital services
VAT rules for supplies of digital services to consumers
If, on the other hand the education, training, or a similar service is delivered by a person over the internet or an electronic network (such as a webinar),then this is not considered to be an electronically supplied service because an actual person is involved in the delivery.
This supply would then be Outside The Scope of UK VAT.
Please see the guidance at:
Place of supply of services (VAT Notice 741A) Section 12
Thank you -
RE: Separate Vat Registration required for EU countries?
Hi Rahul2024 prajapati,
It's difficult to comment on a EU scheme but I believe you would register for the Non Union Moss Scheme.
You can register for this in any member state.
Please see the link below, as an example, which contains the information within the Irish member state which describes these options for you:
Non-Union scheme - One-Stop Shop

RE: Margin Scheme - VAT cannot be reclaimed, not documented
Hi.
The customer would not be able to recover the VAT charged in your price when selling the item under the margin scheme.
The margin scheme can be sold for any second hand goods with the exception of :
any item you bought for which you were charged VAT
precious metals
investment gold
precious stones.
So if a customer purchases a chair on the margin scheme then that customer can also sell the chair on the margin scheme to his customer but will not be allowed to recover the VAT within the price which you have charged.
Please see the guidance at:
VAT margin schemes: Overview

RE: Invoice date vs Import date vs PVA date
Hi. You would account for the VAT under PVA during the period in which the import was made. Therefore you would account for this on the November return. Thank you -
RE: Disputed late payment interest
Hi disgruntled,
Unfortunately, you are unable to appeal interest via your Business Tax Account.
Please see how to appeal late interest penalties at:
Late payment interest if you do not pay VAT or penalties on time in the section “When you can object to late payment interest”

RE: R&D claim delays
Hi Alan Pooley
As already advised in previous answers this forum had no access to R&D claims nor can it progress on your behalf.
Guidance on completion of a CT600 is available at: Corporation Tax for Company Tax Return (CT600 (2024) Version 3)
Corporation Tax: general enquiries can possibly assist regarding a specific entry on the CT600 but cannot progress outstanding R & D claims
The only option regarding progress chasing of your claim is through the Mailbox at RD.IncentivesReliefs@hmrc.gov.uk
Thank you
