- HMRC has updated guidance on penalties for late submissions for VAT groups
- Penalties are calculated based on points
- Representative member of a VAT group has single liability for points covering the whole group
- Existing liability is transferred to new representative member if there is a change
- New member joining the group does not affect points total
- Business leaving the group and registering for VAT separately starts with zero points
- Divisions within a group are liable for their own separate points and penalties
- Each division has its own maximum points total
