VAT - Adwords

[mobile-reserve]

Tweet

I use Google Adwords, started July last year, up until January Google charged me VAT at the Irish rate of 22% (thats where their based) but as i'm in the UK and use Adwords for business purposes they said i don't need to pay it.

They sent me a cheque for the vat I paid up until January, now they are not even charging me the UK rate, they are charging no VAT at all.

I'm not VAT registered and I don't intend to be.

What happens ? do I just continue paying no VAT at all or do I need to pay it eventually ?, if I have to pay then I will but I don't want to carry on as I am and then receive a letter saying I owe a huge VAT bill.

Any advice will help.
thanks.

if you are earning less than the VAT threshold then you dont have to worry, but you must add the Adwords Costs and your commissions together and it must be under the VAT threshold, if its more than you have to register for vat

Is the threshold £60,000 ?.

I'd gladly pay VAT if i was making that much lol.
