Are you, the business owner, getting all the rewards you deserve? Could you be achieving more? If these questions sound familiar, we can help.

Think the VAT Flat Rate Scheme means less admin so it must always save you tax?

It can simplify VAT by letting you pay a fixed percentage of your VAT-inclusive turnover and keep the difference – but you usually cannot reclaim VAT on most purchases.

Get it wrong and you could overpay, underpay, or fall outside the £150k/£230k limits.

At Meades Group we:
- check if you qualify
- choose the right rate for your sector
- monitor when you should leave the scheme

Want clarity on your VAT? Message our team today.
