    Just adjust it in the current year. Unless you have a turnover of £100 then it's unlikely to be material in the grand scheme of things.

    The VAT man will allow errors up to £10,000 to be corrected on future returns, so again just adjust on the next return if necessary.

    £30 !!! I wish I could get that accurate.

    I wouldn't fret at a £30 error, if memory serves HMRC VAT don't care much about ~£1k errors (possibly more) and say to correct them on the next return. On an annual return for a defunct company I doubt they would give 2 hoots unless there's something vastly more significant.

    £30 error in paperwork or £30 error in your pocket?

    Either way personally I just wouldn't bother.
