    Backdating VAT

    This sounds like a bit of a mess. Did you charge VAT on the original invoices you sent to the agent? Have you re-invoiced the agent from a new company after he has already paid invoices to your original company? What are your reasons for backdating your VAT to March?

    VAT & Offshore Businesses

    I think you are probably overthinking it Eddie. Firstly are you customers VAT registered? If they are then they can reclaim VAT anyway on sales in the UK so there will be no saving.

    Self employed Uk contract Germany

    I don't know the specifics on German law but it sounds like a similar rule to the UK. Some things I would consider are: Are you concerned about the company terminating your contract or being on the wrong side of the law? If it's the former there is not much you can do. If it's the latter are...

    Operating as a UK Limited company in The Netherlands

    Tax residency is complicated but one legitimate way to save lots of tax if you set up correctly. You residence will be determined by a number of factors and not just days spent in the country (although this is one of the factors that will be considered). Here are some questions you should...

    How do I classify Uber/ViaVan in my accountancy?

    VAT & Offshore Businesses

    Hello. I’m not sure about the specifics about VAT in Gibraltar but you would need to comply with VAT rules where you are providing the service. VAT is a little complex, if you are providing services to VAT registered businesses then VAT will not impact them because they will be able to claim it...

    getting a business bank account while not in UK

    Yes. UK Ltd co should take care of it for you. You could also have set yourself up to claim travel to and from but may be a bit trickier if you have no address.

    First year trading, late accountant appointment question

    Yes. Don't panic. You are not in as bad a situation as you fear. Accounts don't need to be submitted to Companies House until 21 months after you have incorporated. Your corporation tax will become due 9 months after your year end. However the treatment for this may be a little different in...

    selling all shares of private limited IT company

    As directors they won't have any liabilities so long as they act improperly in accordance with companies law. As per Dom tax liabilities are with the company so HMRC will come after the company to settle any money that is owed. As this may impact the value that the acquiring shareholders have...

    That will depend. Are you VAT registered and reclaiming VAT on your purchases?

    Christmas party £150

    The £150 can be used for several events. It can also be used for travel to an event but you can't exceed £150. It must be open to all staff members though so you might need to have your Christmas party on your own? Although technically you should be able to.

    Leaving SJD Accountants

    It would probably be easiest to get SJD to complete your year end accounts and tax return given you have mainly paid them for this now. Failing it shouldn't be too difficult for another accountant to rebuild your accounts from bank statements and expense claims (assuming you don't have too many...
