Update: Reverse Charge for CIS
I have seen that the deadline for Reverse Charge for CIS has changed, what do I do now?
The new date for this coming into effect will be on 1st March 2021. This change is where VAT-registered subcontractors will no longer charge VAT on certain construction services to another VAT-registered business. Instead, the customer will ‘self-account’ for any VAT due – this is known as the Reverse Charge.
The changes were due to come in on 1st October 2020 but the changes are now delayed until 1st March 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
HMRC recognises that some businesses will have already made changes to meet the needs of the reverse charge and cannot easily change them. Where genuine errors have occurred, HMRC will take into account the fact that the implementation date has changed.
