Religious
organisations
VAT is an important and sometimes incredibly complex aspect of your finances. It will impact every organisation in some way and Churches or registered charities connected to religious organisations are no different. There are four main areas Church and faith based organisations should be aware of:
- Church or religious organisation building projects and property acquisition
- Requirements for VAT registration
- Church VAT recovery
- Obtaining VAT reliefs
We can help you with advice on the obligations and any opportunities that are available to you. This includes any implications of new activities run in your Church building, obtain VAT relief on purchases and construction of new Church buildings and help you financially structure any church building project to maximise tax relief opportunities. With our sector experience, and length of service in the industry, our expertise and advice will be invaluable.
