What our client Says
Xero VAT return accountant support
More Than a VAT Submission
A reliable VAT return starts with the underlying records. Our Xero VAT returns service can cover the checks, preparation and agreed filing work needed to make each return easier to review and support.
Xero VAT Return Preparation
We review the VAT period in Xero, check the records available, identify items that need clarification and prepare the return based on the agreed bookkeeping and VAT scope. This gives your business a clearer route from day to day bookkeeping records to a VAT return that is ready for review and submission.
MTD VAT Filing
Support for Making Tax Digital VAT filing through compatible software, including review of the Xero return and agreed submission steps.
VAT Reconciliation
Review relevant bank, card and payment account records so unresolved bookkeeping items do not simply carry into the VAT return.
VAT Registration Support
VAT registration and VAT deregistration support can be included where required, subject to your circumstances and the agreed scope.
VAT Reporting and Review
Review VAT figures, period movements and supporting data so unusual balances or missing information can be investigated before filing.

VAT returns in Xero
A Clear Process From Records to Filing
01
Review the VAT Setup
02
Check Records and Reconciliations
We review the bookkeeping information in scope and identify unclear, missing or unreconciled transactions that need further information.
03
Prepare the Xero VAT Return
We review the VAT return, agreed adjustments and supporting information before the figures are treated as ready for approval.
04
Approve and Submit
Once the return is agreed and the required authority is in place, the submission can be completed through the agreed Xero and HMRC process.
Making Tax Digital VAT Support
HMRC says VAT registered businesses should use compatible software to keep VAT records and file VAT returns. Our service can support the Xero side of that process, including digital record review and MTD VAT filing within the agreed scope.
Specialist VAT support
Different VAT Scenarios Need Different Checks
Not every VAT return is a standard quarterly filing. Where your business has a more complex VAT position, we review the records and circumstances before confirming the exact work required.
VAT scheme
Opening position migration
Move agreed opening balances and relevant outstanding customer and supplier transactions.
Complex VAT
VAT Partial Exemption
Support can include review of records and calculations where taxable and exempt activity affects the VAT recovery position.
Transactions
VAT Reverse Charge
Review relevant transactions and the way reverse charge VAT has been recorded in Xero.
Group structure
Group VAT Returns
Support for agreed group VAT return work where the structure and source records have been reviewed first.
International
Imports, Exports and Overseas Transactions
Review transactions that may need additional VAT treatment because goods, services or counterparties cross borders.
Claims
VAT Claims and Adjustments
Review agreed VAT claims, adjustments and supporting information before they are reflected in the return.
Ongoing review
Quarterly VAT Returns
Regular VAT return support can be structured around your filing periods so each cycle follows a consistent review process.
