At what level of taxable turnover does a business have to register for VAT?
- A.
£1,000
- B.
£83,000
- C.
£85,000
- D.
£100,000
Correct Answer
C. £85,000Explanation
The threshold was raised from £83,000 to £85,000 in April 2017, so any business with a taxable turnover of £85,000 or more (that is one that makes sales of more than £85,000 that would be subject to VAT if you were registered) must register with HMRC for VAT. Anyone who makes any level of taxable sales can register for VAT if they want to - people often do so because they're able to reclaim more VAT than they pay over (if most of their sales are zero rated) or just to make it appear that they're a bigger business than they are.Rate this question:
