VAT Filing Deadlines

The deadline for submitting VAT returns is 28 days after the end of each tax period. For example:

If your tax period ends in March, your VAT return must be filed by April 28.

For monthly filers, the deadline is 28 days after the end of each month.

It's important to note that if the deadline falls on a weekend or public holiday, the filing must be done on the next working day.

Failure to file VAT returns or make payments by the due date will result in penalties, so it’s crucial to maintain a well-organized filing schedule to stay compliant.
