The Business Delivery Team at HMRC have provided an update on VAT registration delays.
We’re currently dealing with a high volume of VAT Registration applications. As a result, we’re processing around 70% of these applications within 30 days and the majority of those cases within 5 working days. We’re prioritising this work and expect to be processing 95% of VAT Registrations within 30 days by the end of March 2021. We are sorry for any delays.
