- A VAT report is a financial document summarizing a company’s VAT-related transactions over an accounting period, detailing output VAT (on sales) and input VAT (on purchases) to calculate the net amount owed or reclaimable.
- It comprises nine specific boxes that record various VAT figures, including sales, purchases, EU acquisitions/supplies (for Northern Ireland), and the final net VAT position, supporting the preparation of the official VAT Return.
- While accounting software often automates the process, understanding each box is crucial for compliance, especially given specific rules for Northern Ireland’s EU trade and variations introduced by schemes like Annual or Cash Accounting.
