ESL and RCSL online services

Only VAT-registered agents can use the ESL and RCSL online services for their clients. These services are not currently available to non VAT-registered agents.

 

Great. Thanks. That's soooo helpful right now.

Thats bad.   C&E wanted to exclude us altogether from VAT Return filing and I corresponded with a member of the JCCV on that a few years ago.  They had to back down but it seems they still want to restrain trade

I remember that situation, you didn't used to be able to do online VAT filing at all at one point. I just don't see the point in not being able to submit this form online. The ESL is annoying anyway as it has to be in two weeks before the VAT100 form that it relates to!

Or indeed why isn't the ESL Return on the VAT 100 itself. Small businesses really don't wish to be visiting VAT matters twice in the same month, and their agents certainly don't.

That would be far easier and more logical.

Are the ESL's all for the same periods? We have a client with a Feb/May/Aug/Nov VAT cycle, but the ESL is Mar/etc.. Which is a pain!

Hi Nick,
Try asking HMRC to "stagger" the VAT 1/4 to fall in line. Think they usually do a short period to achieve this.
