A trader omitted to register for VAT for eight years. He has now done so and is seeking to recover the VAT liability from his one VAT-registered customer. Consideration is given as to when the four-year limit for the recovery of VAT starts in a case such as this: is it the date of supply or the date of the VAT invoice?
