If you discover that you have made a mistake on a previous VAT Return you may need to inform HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) or adjust your next return.
To find out how to correct an error, please follow the link below. If you can, please correct the error yourself as this will ensure the problem is resolved quickly and, if you are due a repayment, you may get it sooner.
HMRC has found that many of the mistakes reported to their Error Correction Team could have been corrected by the customer. There is currently a six to eight week delay in processing corrections so it makes sense to correct the mistake yourself if possible.
