What is the VAT registration threshold in 2026?

The threshold is £90,000 of VAT-taxable turnover in a rolling 12-month period. The deregistration threshold is £88,000.

Do I need Making Tax Digital software?

Yes. All VAT-registered businesses must keep digital records and file VAT returns through MTD-compatible software. We set it up and file for you.
