What are the changes for VAT Filing from 8 April 2021? Following IT infrastructure changes, HMRC decommissioned the XML VAT submission service from 8 April 2021. From this date, all software providers have been unable to submit VAT returns for businesses not registered for MTD for VAT. All businesses will be expected to be registered for MTD for VAT from 1 April 2022. How will this affect you as a VAT Filer user? As businesses will no longer be able to use third party software to file non-MTD VAT Returns from 8 April 2021, to avoid disruption to your filing process, we recommend that you migrate your or your client's VAT business(es) across to MTD for VAT before this time. Although HMRC will provide the ability to submit a VAT Return from the relevant Business Tax Account until MTD for VAT is universally mandated, this is a temporary measure and it is not their intention to provide an MTD filing platform from 1 April 2022.
