VAT and Your Business

VAT and Your Business

The keeping of proper books and records is not just for VAT purposes, it is also a legal requirement. A good bookkeeping system should allow you to determine at any time who you owe money to and more importantly, who owes you money! From the perspective of the Revenue Commissioners your VAT records must be kept up to date and must allow you to accurately determine and verify your VAT liabilities or refunds due. Books and records must also be retained, in their original form, for a period of 6 years.
