CIS / VAT reverse charge

[Sez1]

I’m still getting confused with the reverse charging. I have a client (sole trader) who is VAT registered (flat rate scheme). I am invoicing for labour only, adding 20% vat and the 20% CIS is being deducted. How do I post the sales invoice, to ensure that the VAT element is being shown correctly on the VAT return? Thank you. S.

Hi @Sez1

When creating the invoice if you go down to the additional VAT settings you can select the CIS reverse charge there:

Thank you that has all been done. Am I right in thinking that there is no VAT due showing on the VAT return, it only shows the sales value in box 6.

I believe that is correct but you would be best to check with an accountant to ensure everything you are filing is correct

Thank you for you help.
