Are you paying VAT before your customers pay you? 💷

If your business regularly waits for invoices to be settled, the VAT Cash Accounting Scheme could help with cash flow.

It’s worth considering both sides. Waiting to reclaim VAT on large purchases could outweigh the benefit of delaying VAT on unpaid sales.

Our latest article explains how the scheme works and what to consider before making a change.
