Value Added Tax (VAT) is the tax you must pay when buying goods or services. If you are a business, you may be required to register for and collect VAT. Businesses with a turnover of more than £90,000 (the VAT registration threshold) must register to pay and add VAT on the products and services they buy and sell. They must then pay this to HMRC when they file their quarterly return.
