Questions

Is this template really free?

Yes. Pflichtblatt is free, has no ads, no sign-up and no tracking. Everything you type stays in your browser; the PDF is created on your device.

What does “VAT registration” mean?

You must register for VAT with HMRC once your taxable turnover goes over £90,000 in 12 months. You can register voluntarily below that. A UK VAT number starts with GB and has 9 digits. The standard rate is 20%.

What does “Companies House & registered office” mean?

Limited companies and LLPs are registered at Companies House. The company number, the full registered name and the registered office address must appear on your website, invoices and letters. Sole traders and partnerships leave these fields empty.
