    VAT Threshold

    The UK VAT registration threshold is £90,000 of rolling 12-month taxable turnover — at which point a business must register for VAT within 30 days.

    The threshold is checked monthly on a rolling basis, not by financial year. There's also a 30-day forward test: if you reasonably expect a single 30-day period to exceed £90,000, you must register immediately. The deregistration threshold is £88,000 — you can deregister if your taxable turnover drops below it. The threshold has been frozen at £85,000 for years before rising to £90,000 in April 2024.
