VAT
Financial Accounts prepare and submit monthly and quarterly VAT returns to HM Revenue and Customs on behalf of the University.
The section can offer advice on VAT issues relating to sales and purchases, and can also advise whether an item may be exempt from input tax in the event that it is used for medical research or training.
In the event of a VAT query Schools and Service Departments should contact the section within Financial Accounting and should not contact HM Revenue and Customs directly.
From 4 January 2011 the standard rate of VAT is 20%.
