- VAT Registration Transfer Process: To transfer a VAT registration number during a change in company ownership, you must complete both an application for VAT registration and form VAT68.
- Eligibility for Transfer: You can request this transfer if you are taking over a company and wish to continue using the previous owner’s VAT registration number or if you are changing your business structure, such as moving from a sole proprietorship to a limited company.
- Submission of VAT68 Form: Completed VAT68 forms can be submitted via email to HMRC or sent to the postal address indicated on the form, with the VAT registration service (VRS) number included in the email subject line.
