VAT Compliance
At Frankbridge Advisory Limited, we provide expert VAT compliance services, helping businesses navigate regulations, minimise risk, and optimise tax positions while avoiding super costly penalties.
How we will support your business to be VAT compliant:
VAT Compliance Reviews
Our Frankbridge team will conduct in-depth reviews of your VAT records to identify any gaps or areas of non-compliance, ensuring your business meets all regulatory requirements.
We help answer critical questions:
Do you maintain proper VAT records?
Are you fully VAT compliant?
Do you have any outstanding penalties?
What VAT rates apply to your goods and services?
VAT Return Preparation and Filing
In Kenya, VAT returns and payments are due on or before the 20th of the following month. Our team ensures your VAT returns are prepared correctly and submitted on time, reducing the risk of errors and penalties.
VAT Refund Claims Assistance
If your business qualifies for a VAT refund, we guide you through the entire application process, ensure accurate documentation, and liaise with KRA on your behalf to facilitate a smooth and timely refund.
VAT Advisory & Transaction Support
VAT regulations can be complex, especially when dealing with capital projects, exemptions, or cross-border transactions. Our team provides expert guidance on:
VAT on Capital Projects: We help businesses structure capital investments efficiently, ensuring proper VAT treatment to optimise deductions and minimise liabilities.
VAT Exemptions & Zero-Rated Supplies: We advise on which goods and services qualify for VAT exemptions or zero-ratings under the VAT Act, 2013, helping you maximise benefits while staying compliant.
Input VAT Deductions: We review your VAT records to ensure you correctly claim input VAT, reducing the risk of disallowed deductions and ensuring compliance with KRA regulations.
VAT on Imported Services (Reverse VAT): If your business procures services from non-resident suppliers, we ensure compliance with Reverse VAT obligations and help you claim deductions where applicable.
Tax Invoice & eTIMS Compliance: We guide businesses in generating compliant electronic tax invoices through eTIMS and ensure proper documentation for VAT claims.
Revenue Authority Audit Support & Dispute Resolution
Are you facing a VAT audit or dispute with KRA? Our team of experts provides full support, ensuring proper documentation and representing you in dispute resolutions, including the Tax Appeals Tribunal (TAT) and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).
VAT Deregistration
If you need to deregister from VAT due to changes in business operations or compliance concerns, we will guide you through the deregistration process while ensuring full compliance to avoid unnecessary penalties or additional costs.
