How the VAT201 net position works

Output VAT (5% on standard-rated sales) plus VAT self-accounted on reverse-charge imports, minus the input VAT you can recover on purchases and expenses, gives the net VAT due to or from the FTA. Reverse-charge import VAT is usually accounted as both output and input, so it nets to zero when fully recoverable. This is an estimate — match it to your filing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the reverse charge on imports?

On imported goods and services you self-account for VAT: you add it as output VAT and, if recoverable, claim the same amount as input VAT. For fully taxable businesses the two cancel out.

What if my input VAT is higher than output VAT?

Your net position is a refund (a VAT credit). You can request a refund from the FTA or carry it forward to offset future VAT due.
