Please note that receiving a VAT number is not an automatic process. You must first register for VAT with HMRC. We provide a VAT Registration Service if you need assistance with this.

Once we have completed your registration, HMRC will send your VAT number directly to the trading address that you put in the application. The standard timeframe is 8-12 weeks. If you still cannot locate your VAT Registration Number, we recommend contacting HMRC directly. You can find their contact details here.
