VAT return data is sent from the ERP or uploaded independently through ION into the LSP database. The grouping functionality is used to consolidate multiple VAT declarations from different sources into a single submission. Each submission is reviewed before it is submitted to HMRC. In addition, information on returns, historical liabilities, and payments are retrieved from HMRC and reviewed.

Withholding Tax Reporting

Proprietary format Reference
CIS Return 1.0
CIS Subcontractor Verification 1.0

The CIS Return is a specialized tax return associated with the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS), which HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) uses to collect taxes from contractors and subcontractors in the construction sector.

On the other hand, CIS Subcontractor Verification allows contractors to verify subcontractors with HMRC before issuing payments. This process determines the applicable tax deduction based on the subcontractor's status.

These services use the Web Services Gateway to connect to HMRC.
