Answers: i guess it depends what they need the vat number for...eg, are you a business? anywho, administer the national advice service a ring on 0845 010 9000 way out 1, thats the vat advice splash. they can help you find out whether you have need of to have a vat number for sure. if you do requirement one, they'll send you an application pack
You return with a VAT number by registering for VAT with HMRC.
This is compulsory if your turnover is above lb64k pa, otherwise it's voluntary.
Don't register newly for FedEx! They don't need a VAT number if you're not VAT registered.
