When making VAT payments under the Making Tax Digital (MTD) scheme, it is important to track and verify payment details. This guide explains how to view VAT payments within the system and the timeframe for updates.

Steps to View VAT Payments

  1. Access the Payment View:

    • Locate and click the "View Payment" button in the VAT module.

Key Notes

  • Processing Time:

    • Payments may take up to 5 days to appear in the system after submission.
    • Ensure this timeframe has passed before checking if the payment is not immediately visible.

  • Making Tax Digital (MTD):

    • Payments are processed through MTD-compliant systems, ensuring compliance with HMRC requirements.

Scenarios Where This Process is Useful
