Once registered under VAT, businesses will be required to file periodic statutory declarations. VAT returns will need to be filed (quarterly), which summaries all the taxable transactions that the business has made in that specific period.

Depending on transactions types and values, business may have to pay the VAT surplus to the tax authorities, or will be eligible to make a claim for a refund

Our team of experts can assist you in ongoing VAT compliance as may be required under the law, in addition to VAT return filing.

We can assist in VAT compliance areas such as:

It is important that VAT returns are accurately compiled based on the underlying accounting records and reflect accurately the VAT due to/from the government. Errors in filing VAT returns will attract fines and penalties and loss of reputation.
