HMRC pledge follows scheduled lack of service
HMRC are encouraging new firms to register for VAT digitally, rather than on paper, citing the advantage of on-screen assistance and an immediate acknowledgment that the taxman has received the application.
The business will be automatically enrolled to the Revenue's VAT online service, to allow submission of returns, and the certificate of registration will be available online.
Tax evaders are being named by HMRC for the first time online. The Revenue has published a first batch of information about “deliberate defaulters” on its website, as officials make use of powers granted by Finance Act 2009, s 94 to warn taxpayers against neglecting their obligations.
