Всичко за VAT Flat Rate Scheme
📋Представяне+
Applies your sector's flat rate to VAT-inclusive turnover (grossed up at 20%), checks the limited cost trader test (16.5% rate), applies the 1-point first-year discount, and compares the result with the standard scheme (output VAT minus recoverable input VAT).
💡 Добри практики
- You can join the scheme if expected VAT-taxable turnover is £150,000 or less (excl. VAT) and must leave once total income exceeds £230,000 (incl. VAT).
- In your first year of VAT registration the flat rate is reduced by 1 percentage point — including the 16.5% limited cost rate (15.5%).
- Businesses with significant input VAT (equipment, stock) are usually better off on the standard scheme.
🔢 Конкретен пример
IT consultancy, £100,000 net turnover (£120,000 gross), 14.5% sector rate, £3,000 goods, £1,000 input VAT: FRS VAT £17,400 vs standard £19,000 — the scheme saves £1,600.

FAQ — VAT Flat Rate Scheme
Who can join the VAT Flat Rate Scheme?+

16.5% of VAT-inclusive turnover. It applies when spend on relevant goods is under 2% of gross turnover or under £1,000 a year — most labour-only service businesses fall in this category.
