I have a new client who imports jewellery from China. She regularly receives invoices from DHL which show Duty and VAT that have to be paid on imports. For example there was one today where the VAT was £296.93, the Duty was £43.24, and the Admin fee was £6.80. Is the 296.93 allowable in the VAT Return?

Recently a client of mine had an employee who was paid weekly, above the threshold, and therefore had to pay tax as normal with a payment due to HMRC every week. Last week the employee worked a lot less hours, paid no tax, and in-fact received a re-payment of £12.00 odd, which my client paid to the employe...
