VAT expertise
As this is one of the most complex areas of taxation and we have invested
in specialist staff. Our VAT team regularly assist clients on the potential
minefield of partial exemption and trading companies to ensure the efficient
recovery of VAT.
We can provide:-
- advice on VAT saving opportunities such as reduced rates for renovation
work and the possibility of zero rating for new developments.
- a free VAT healthcheck to identify opportunities to minimise tax
and improve cashflow.
- a pre VAT visit review to identify potential issues and help you
avoid penalties.
- negotiation with HMRC on your behalf.
