Making Tax Digital asks for a digital link, and the simplest link is one that leaves your spreadsheet alone.

  1. 1

    Keep the file you have

    The return stays in the Excel, PDF, CSV, or XML file you prepared it in, so there is never a second copy of the figures to reconcile.

  2. 2

    Open VAT Solver Pro

    The desktop application is the digital link Making Tax Digital asks for, and it reads the file where it sits.

  3. 3

    Send the return

    HMRC receives it from your PC, and the nine boxes never get retyped into a browser.

What the licence includes

  • Excel, PDF, CSV, or XML Submit the file the figures are already in, whichever of the four it happens to be.
  • The digital link Your digital VAT records stay in your own files, and VAT Solver Pro carries them to HMRC.
  • Up to ten companies One licence on the published tariff covers ten companies, so the tenth costs the same as the first.
  • £25 a month Or £300 a year, confirmed on the invoice. VAT extra where it applies.
  • A separate product It runs independently of Gateway Solver, so a Gateway Solver 2.95 update leaves a VAT-only installation exactly as it was.
  • Support by email A message to support becomes a tracked Zendesk ticket that a person picks up.

Who it is for

A business filing its own VAT

Keep preparing the return in the file you already use, and let VAT Solver Pro be the link HMRC’s Making Tax Digital rules ask for.

An agent with up to ten companies

One published tariff covers all ten, which makes the quarterly cost easy to explain to each client. For more than ten, email sales@evolvedsoftwarestudios.com for a quote.

Produced by Evolved Software, whose filing software has been HMRC-recognised since 2004. The end user licence covers this product. Gateway Solver Desktop, for PAYE/RTI and CIS, is a separate product.

Questions

Which files can VAT Solver Pro submit?

Excel, PDF, CSV, or XML. The return goes to HMRC from that file, and the boxes are never retyped.

What does Making Tax Digital require?

Digital VAT records, and a digital link from those records to HMRC. Your files are the records, and VAT Solver Pro is the link.

What is the list price?

£25 a month or £300 a year, for up to ten companies, confirmed on the invoice. VAT extra where it applies.

What if there are more than ten companies?

Email sales with the number and you will get a quote. The price on this page is the published tariff for up to ten companies.

Does a Gateway Solver update change VAT Solver Pro?

No. VAT Solver Pro is a separate product, so the Gateway Solver 2.95 update has no effect on VAT-only customers.

£25 a month, from the file you already have.

Download the installer and see it read your return, or email sales@evolvedsoftwarestudios.com for a licence. Phone 0208 191 7797 if you would rather ask a question first.
