Tax Information Exchange: Guernsey

A new tax information exchange agreement between the governments of the United Kingdom and Guernsey was signed in London on 20 January 2009 by Lord Bach, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Justice, and Lyndon Trott, Chief Minister of Guernsey. The governments have also agreed to amend the provisions of the 1952 arrangement between the two governments for the avoidance of double taxation with respect to taxes on income, notably to add provisions on the taxation of income from pensions and a mutual agreement procedure.

The text of the agreement can be accessed on the HMRC website by following the link below:
http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/international/guernsey-eol.pdf
and will in due course be laid as Schedules to a draft Order in Council for consideration by the House of Commons. It will then also be available from the Stationery Office.

Welcoming signature, the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, the Rt. Hon Stephen Timms MP said:

“This new tax information exchange agreement represents a significant step in our efforts to counter and prevent tax evasion and avoidance. I welcome the willingness of the States of Guernsey to implement these high standards of transparency and exchange of information.”

Lord Bach, Crown Dependencies Minister said:

“The signing of this agreement shows the collaborative nature of the relationship between the UK and Guernsey, and Guernsey’s commitment to meeting high international standards.”

The agreement will enter into force as soon as both governments have completed the legislative procedures needed to give it effect.

The End of Paper VAT returns

HM Revenue and Customs plan to phase out paper VAT Returns with effect from 1 April 2010, when it is expected that all VAT registered businesses with an annual VAT exclusive turnover of £100,000 or more, and all newly registering businesses, whatever their turnover, will be required to submit their VAT Returns online and make payments electronically. This follows Lord Carter’s recommendation that HMRC should aim for universal online submission of the main business tax returns by 2012.

Paper returns will still be an option for the remaining VAT registered businesses, but this will be reviewed in the run up to 2012.

If you need help with your VAT Returns or setting up VAT online get in touch with Davenports now to see how we can help.

Bank of England Reduces Bank Rate

It is clear that the economic downturn is deepening and that financial markets remain in turmoil, so the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee today voted to reduce the official Bank Rate paid on commerical bank reserves by 1.0 percentage point to 2.0% – the lowest rate since 1951.

Good news for home owners with mortgages and small businesses with variable loans, assuming the commercial banks pass on the reduction.

The Royal Bank of Scotland has already said that it will pass the rate cut on in full to it’s small business customers.

The BBC has learnt that Lloyds TSB/Cheltenham & Gloucester said they would be passing on the rate cut to small business and mortgage customers, while HSBC and Skipton said they would be cutting their standard variable mortgage rates.

Case Study: Arden Automotive Limited

Arden Automotive is a busy car repair and MOT service. They use Davenports to simplify the printing and delivery of their business cards, allowing them to focus on their business.

Testimonial from Arden Automotive

“We have used Davenports for the printing of our business cards. They have given us very prompt service and turnaround is very good, making up for our lack of planning! The quality of the double sided cards is very professional.” - John Pick, Director

Arden Automotive approached Davenports with two separate business card jobs. Although the customer already had artwork in place, Davenports retouched the artwork to improve the final print quality.

Davenports produced two sets of 1,000 business cards printed full colour both sides onto 400gsm matt card, then matt laminated both sides and delivered the cards to the customer.
