Before you submit your VAT Return

Before submitting your VAT Return, you must:

  • Download and install the Sage MTD Submissions Module for Sage 200 if you haven't already.
  • Ensure you have your Government Gateway User ID and password as you'll need these each time you submit your VAT Return.

You must also do the following in each company in Sage 200 Accounts:

  • Before your first VAT period under MTD, check the VAT settings are correct.
  • Run the VAT Return and check your VAT figures for the period.
  • Enter any VAT Return Adjustments.
  • Print and reconcile the VAT Return.


Generate your VAT Return figures
  1. Open the Sage MTD Submissions Module.
  2. Under Application, in the drop-down click Sage 200.
  3. Under Company, click the company you want to submit for then click Choose Company.
  4. In the Select VAT Periods window, click the VAT period you want to submit, then click OK.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each company you want to include in your submission.

    Under VAT Return, it shows the combined VAT figures you're about to submit.

  6. You can also include the VAT Return for another company from an Excel spreadsheet and add it to the already-selected Sage 200 companies.

    Your MTD licence will need to include both the Excel and Sage 200 options.

Worked example:

If there was company A and company B with VAT returns ending December due to be submitted. The VAT return will have been completed in both company A and B before opening the MTD Module. You would select Sage 200 from the Product field, choose company A from the company list then click Choose Company. You would then select the December VAT return and click OK. This copies the details from the VAT return to the module. Then you would select company B from the company list and click Choose Company again. Selecting the December VAT return and clicking OK will now add the details from company B's VAT return to the totals for company A still stored in the MTD module. Once you have finished adding VAT returns which need to be grouped together you would follow the steps in the Submit the Vat Return section.
