Service issues
VAT notice of assessment of tax
Some ‘VAT notice of assessment of tax’ letters recently sent to Making Tax Digital customers were issued in error.
If your business has already submitted the VAT return in question and paid the tax due or received its repayment, you can ignore this letter. You can check your position using your ‘HMRC online services’ and agents can check this on your behalf by using the ‘Manage your client’s details’ service.
Overseas businesses
If you’re unable to sign up an overseas business because you are being asked for information that only a UK based customer can give, contact the VAT helpline, giving the VAT registration numbers and business names so that HMRC can amend the customer record. This can take up to 14 days.
We’ve already amended the records of many overseas customers we’ve previously been told about and sign up for these customers should now be successful.
