This is the main VAT database, which holds details of all VAT transactions for each registration. Data includes:

  • individual VAT Return declarations and payments
  • the VAT ledger detailing debits/credits and any outstanding debt
  • officers assessments raised and payment details
  • VAT inspection dates.

This information is viewable on a registration-by-registration basis. Much of the data is available though on other interrogation tools such as VISION (DMBM530420).
