Section 4.
1A person who makes taxable supplies but is not registered is liable to be registered—
(a)after the end of any quarter, if the value of his taxable supplies in the period of one, two, three or four quarters then ending has exceeded the amount shown in the following Table as applicable to that period ; or
(b)at any time, if there are reasonable grounds for believing that the value of his taxable supplies in the period of one year beginning at that or any later time will exceed £5,000 ;
except that a person is not liable to be registered by virtue of sub-paragraph (a) above on the ground that the value of his taxable supplies in a period of less than a year has exceeded the amount applicable to that period if the Commissioners are satisfied that the value of his taxable supplies in that period and the remaining quarter or quarters of the year will not exceed £5,000.
Number of quarters comprised in period | Amount applicable |
---|---|
£ | |
1 | 1,750 |
2 | 3,000 |
3 | 4,250 |
4 | 5,000 |
2A registered person who makes taxable supplies shall cease to be liable to be registered—
(a)after the end of any quarter, if he has been registered for the whole of the two years then ending and the value of his taxable supplies in each of those years has been £4,000 or less, or the value of his taxable supplies in each of the quarters comprised in those years has been £1,250 or less ; and
(b)at any time, if the Commissioners are satisfied that the value of his taxable supplies in the period of one year then beginning will be £4,000 or less.
3A person who, on 1st April 1973, will be liable to be registered shall notify the Commissioners of that fact within ten days of the earliest date after September 1972 on which he knows or could with reasonable diligence have known that he will be so liable or within such longer time as the Commissioners may allow ; and the Commissioners shall register any such person with effect from 1st April 1973.
4The following three paragraphs apply to persons not required to notify the Commissioners under paragraph 3 of this Schedule.
5A person who by virtue of paragraph 1(a) of this Schedule is liable to be registered after the end of any quarter shall notify the Commissioners of his liability within ten days of the end of that quarter and the Commissioners shall register any such person with effect from the twenty-first day of the next quarter or such earlier date as may be agreed between them and that person.
6A person who, by virtue of paragraph 1(b) of this Schedule, is liable to be registered by reason of the value of his taxable supplies in any period shall notify the Commissioners of that liability not later than the beginning of that period, and the Commissioners shall register any such person with effect from the beginning of that period or such earlier date as may be agreed between them and that person.
7Where a person who intends to make taxable supplies, and will be liable to be registered when he does so, notifies the Commissioners of the fact and requests to be registered the Commissioners may, subject to such conditions as they think fit to impose, register him from such date as may be agreed between them and that person.
8A registered person who ceases to make taxable supplies shall notify the Commissioners of that fact within ten days of the date on which he does so and the Commissioners shall cancel the registration of any such person.
9Where, by virtue of paragraph 2(a) of this Schedule, a registered person ceases to be liable to be registered and notifies the Commissioners of that fact, the Commissioners shall cancel his registration with effect from the end of the period of fourteen days beginning with the date on which he so notifies them or from such other date as may be agreed between them and that person.
10Where a registered person requests the Commissioners to cancel his registration by virtue of paragraph 2(b) of this Schedule and the Commissioners are at any time satisfied as mentioned in that paragraph they shall cancel his registration as from that time.
11Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Schedule,—
(a)where a person who makes or intends to make taxable supplies satisfies the Commissioners that any such supply is zero-rated or would be zero-rated if he were a taxable person they may, if he so requests and they think fit, exempt him from registration ; and
(b)where a person who makes or intends to make taxable supplies is not and will not be liable to be registered the Commissioners may, if he so requests and they think fit, treat him as so liable, subject to such conditions as they think fit to impose ;
until it appears to the Commissioners that the request should no longer be acted upon or the request is withdrawn; but the Commissioners may by notice given in such manner as appears to them appropriate for the information of persons making taxable supplies prevent the withdrawal of such a request made after the publication of the notice for such period after it is made as may be specified in the notice.
12The provisions of this Part of this Act relating to the determination of the value of a supply of goods or services shall apply for the purposes of this Schedule with the modification that no allowance shall be made for tax.
13Any notification required under this Schedule shall be made in such form and shall contain such particulars as the Commissioners may by regulations prescribe.
14References in this Schedule to registration are references to registration in a register kept by the Commissioners for the purposes of this Part of this Act.
