Quarterly UK VAT Return Preparation
Budget: £2 – £5 GBP
My small UK-registered business needs a reliable set of hands to keep our VAT obligations up-to-date. Every quarter I’ll send you the bank feeds. Your job is to reconcile the transactions, flag any anomalies, and prepare a Making Tax Digital-compliant VAT return ready for me to review and submit to HMRC.
Key points you should know:
• This is strictly tax-preparation and Year-end accounts work too.
• Returns are quarterly, so accuracy and a clear audit trail matter more to me than speed.
- Balance sheet reconciliations are a must so we can close of balance sheet accounts.
- some payroll too
Deliverables each quarter:
1. Fully reconciled ledger matching bank, sales, and purchase records.
2. Draft VAT return (Box 1–9) in HMRC format, plus an export or PDF report.
3. Notes on any outstanding queries or evidence required before submission.
If you’re experienced with UK VAT rules—including partial exemption, EU transactions, and MTD filing—and you can communicate promptly via email or Slack, we should be a great fit.
