Bad debt VAT relief on Retail Shop
Permalink Closed


Hi there, few queries.  I look after the accounts for a retail shop i.e. I presume I can claim the VAT back straight away on any refunds or bounced credit card payments due the the immediate cash/payment nature of the business, as I know that you would normally have to wait 6 months re VAT if on standard accounting. 

Also sale to to europe where  it is a personal sale i.e. not vat registered client I presume I input as vatable sage as usual on sage T1.

Sale outside UK and europe I think no vat is charged and input through sage as T0.

Thanks

Hi Julie

I think you'll be fine reclaiming the VAT straight back. I tend to post a contra payment for any bounced cheques etc which reclaims the VAT.

Yep, any sales to non VAT registered individuals are Vatable. I post as T1 but never been 100% it was the correct tax code to use.

I tend to post sales outside of the EU as a T9 transaction, as its my understanding only EU sales go on the VAT return.

Hope I've been of some help - first proper post! hmm

Thanks very much for reply and welcome to the forum, the people here are really helpful, will check on if sales outside EU should be on VAT return. Any more replies regarding this would be appreciated.

Guys

All sales need to go onto the VAT return, so you should not use be using T9 in this instance.

All sales are vatable even if to a non registered business/person, so T1 will be used for all your sales (unless you have zero rated items).
