How to update VAT settings when you have de-registered from VAT.

You must cancel your VAT registration if you are no longer eligible to be registered, but you can also cancel voluntarily if your taxable turnover falls sufficiently. You must do so directly with HMRC; you cannot submit a cancellation through software.

If your business has de-registered for VAT, it’s important to update this in Ember:

  • Go to VAT in the Settings menu.

  • From the VAT settings overview, select Edit next to your current registration to update your VAT details.

  • Select De-register for VAT.

  • Enter your cancellation date and apply.

    • You cannot select a cancellation date during an already-filed VAT return period or if you have Invoices with VAT dated afterwards. If you try, Ember will show an error message and suggest the earliest date you can apply the change.

  • Click Save details to save your changes.

  • Your VAT Settings now reflect that you are de-registered from VAT.
