The new reverse charge for the construction industry
The new reverse charge for the construction industry
The domestic reverse charge is a major change to the way VAT is collected in the building and construction industry and will affect both suppliers and customers that are both VAT and CIS registered.
The changes come into effect on 1 March 2021 and mean the supplier will no longer charge VAT on its specified supplies. The customer receiving the supplies will be responsible for accounting for and paying any VAT due to HMRC.
