New form for notifying HMRC of VAT errors

HMRC have launched a new online G-form which will be the default option to notify them of errors in VAT returns.

HMRC have launched a new online G-form which will be the default option to notify them of errors in VAT returns.

This is for all VAT-registered businesses who wish to submit a VAT Error Correction Notice (ECN). Once submitted, a copy of the digital form will be captured into the Digital Mail Service (DMS) and processed as it is currently.

The new G-Form will streamline the current process, making it easier to notify HMRC about errors on VAT returns. It will enable businesses to:

  • Upload supporting documentation.
  • Provide explanatory notes.
  • Save the form allowing them to complete it later.
  • Receive confirmation of submission with a reference number.

It also will help to reduce mistakes through built-in validation and auto-calculations and capture more complete information.
