Small businesses typically file a VAT return four times a year, with deadlines governed by the Making Tax Digital (MTD) for VAT legislation. This requires all VAT-registered businesses to use MTD-compliant software. The most common quarterly VAT return dates are as follows:
Each VAT return must be filed one month and seven days after the end of the corresponding quarterly period. For instance, the VAT return that covers 1 January-31 March 2023 must be submitted to HMRC by 7 May 2023.
Submit your online return by 30 December if you want HMRC to automatically collect tax you owe from your wages and pension. You must be eligible.
HMRC must receive a paper tax return by 31 January if you are a trustee of a registered pension scheme or a non-resident company. You cannot send a return online.
