VAT fraud can take many forms, including carousel fraud (also known as missing trader fraud), where goods are imported and sold without VAT being paid, only for the fraudster to disappear before remitting the tax to HMRC.

Other common types include underreporting sales to reduce VAT liability, inflating input tax claims with fake invoices, or failing to register for VAT when legally required.

These offenses are taken seriously and can result in severe penalties, including fines and imprisonment.

If you are being investigated or prosecuted for VAT fraud, it is crucial to act quickly—contact us today for expert legal advice and dedicated representation.

Can you be a director again after liquidation of a Limited Company?

Yes, you can be a director again after a limited company has gone into insolvency, but there are some important conditions. If you have not been found personally liable for the company’s financial problems and there is no evidence of wrongdoing, you are generally allowed to become a director of another company.

However, if you were disqualified due to misconduct, such as wrongful trading or failure to comply with your director’s duties, you could be banned from being a director for up to 15 years.

In some cases, the Insolvency Service may investigate the conduct of directors, especially in cases of insolvency, and may take legal action if they find serious failings.

Therefore, it’s important to act responsibly and seek professional advice if your company is facing insolvency, to minimise the risk of any personal consequences.

Taking swift action could provide a pathway to saving your business or at least minimising potential losses.

A Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) is a formal agreement that allows a financially distressed company to negotiate with its creditors to repay debts over an agreed period.

This arrangement is aimed at helping businesses avoid liquidation, enabling them to reorganise their finances and continue trading.

Creditors may agree to accept reduced payments or extended payment terms, offering the company an opportunity to recover and stay in operation.

For a CVA to be put into effect, approval is required from at least 75% of creditors by value.
