If they are not registered you do not do anything with VAT. The client pays it on supplier invoices but can not claim it back nor can they charge it.

No returns are needed. However you must monitor to ensure they do not go over the VAT threshold in a rolling 12 month period.

Thank you, yes I did mentioned about the VAT that he cannot claim on his supplier invoices the downside of not being VAT registered. I will watch that out for the coming months because next year he is expanding more with his business.

I will still run the 3 monthly book to ensure smooth filing for the year end with both companies house and HMRC.
