F&B VAT treatment, healthcare zero-rating, and import VAT recovery for trading companies. Every submission runs a sector-specific check before it is filed.
Your VAT returns are built on the ledgers we reconcile each month. The return is a report from records already closed, not a rebuild at the deadline, so the supporting detail exists before the FTA asks for it.
