Option to Tax - don't get
caught out!
"The Option To Tax" is widely used in order to ensure that VAT recovery can be made on capital expenditure on commercial buildings. However, not only should the decision to opt be taken after careful consideration, there is a very specific procedure in opting to tax and we find ever more often that if this is not met, businesses can end up losing VAT unnecessarily. In fact whilst Customs have recently clarified when they will allow backdating of an option to tax this is discretionary and our advice is 'let's get it right in the first place!'.
We can assist any business who either wants to opt to tax or who has specific option to tax issues. For further information please
contact
David Miller
or Colin
Mathieson. »
