VAT deadlines can be brought in to your Inform Direct account from HMRC

  

If you are an agent that submits VAT returns on behalf of your clients, you can securely connect to HMRC and authorise Inform Direct to retrieve the VAT dates of any client you have linked to your HMRC agent services account (ASA). 

   

Doing this enables Inform Direct to automatically update your clients VAT dates and allows us to offer the following important features to ensure you don’t miss an approaching VAT deadline:

  

  • The VAT return filing due date is highlighted in the Key Dates section of each company dashboard.
  • You can choose to display the 'Next VAT return due date' for each of your companies on your Portfolio page.
  • A notification will display on the company dashboard to warn you when a client’s VAT return is due in the next 7 days and again when the VAT return is due today.

  • Automated email reminders alert you when the VAT return filing deadline is due in 7 days and again when the VAT return is due today.

  • You can also generate a report that displays the next VAT return period and VAT due dates of all your client companies.
