After attending today's Webinar on Reverse Charge VAT, I remain very confused about how to record Reverse Charge VAT in my Excel spreadsheet bookkeeping system. I an a VAT registered Sole Trader, also registered under CIS as I occasionally use sub-contract labour. I've just received a Reverse Charge invoice for £300 from a company that did some specialist work for me as a one-off. Do I enter this as a £300 zero-VAT entry on my 'Supplies inwards' sheet, then create a second line that shows £0 for goods, £60 VAT, £60 total (as Input VAT) and then create an 'invoice' on my 'Customer Invoices' sheet for the Reverse Charge £60 amount £0 goods / services, £60 VAT, £60 total (as Output VAT) so that the VAT Inwards and VAT Out cancel each other out? I will then charge my end-user customer VAT on my invoice to them in the normal way.

Hi.
We would not be able to advise regarding how your software treats a reverse charge supply.
We can only advise on how it would be reflected on the VAT return as a contractor.

Thank you.
