does my VAT number have to appear on my invoices?
I don't think that this is a problem. In fact I have never heard of this being an issue before this. A PPS number is not confidential information.If it is the case that you must then I'm horrified that VAT numbers are the same as your own PPS number, especially in this climate of "identification fraud'!
I'm buying a company which I will operate on a sole trader basis
My accountant seems to think there are fraudsters at work who use VAT numbers to buy high value items in The North using other peoples VAT numbers in order to buy them VAT free. She seemed to think there are then consequences for the owner of the VAT number down the line - i.e. accusations of use of VAT number for personal purposes.
I'm in the process of ordering stationary - does my VAT number have to appear on my invoices?
I'm getting conflicting information from my accountant who says DONT put it on the invoices and an accountant who is running course for those setting up their own business who says you MUST.
Correct. I think after a year you can ask Revenue to make annual payments of VAT rather than bi-monthly. Cuts down on the paperwork but you have to be organised enough to keep the money aside. Otherwise when it's time to pay....
I think you may be referring to the annual vat return. This involves completing one form a year but you must make payments by direct debit each month. You should estimate your liabiltiy for the year then divide by 12 and pay that amount each month. There are interest and penalty issues if the direct debit payments are a lot less than your liabiltiy at the year end.
