I'm turning over a fortune but I've no idea what's actually profit.

Amazon seller tax questions, answered

When do I need to register for VAT as an Amazon seller?

Two tests apply: you must register once your UK taxable turnover passes £90,000 in any rolling 12 months, or as soon as you expect it to pass £90,000 in the next 30 days alone. If you hold stock in the EU or sell across borders, VAT obligations can arise from your first sale, with no threshold at all — we'll check your exact position.

Are Amazon fees and ads tax-deductible?

Yes — FBA fees, referral fees, PPC ad spend, storage, software and the cost of your stock are all allowable business expenses. The key is capturing them accurately, which is exactly what our bookkeeping does.

Should I trade as a sole trader or a limited company?

It depends on your profit and, more importantly, whether you need to take all the profit out — since recent NIC and dividend-tax changes, incorporating rarely saves tax on full extraction; the gains now come from retaining profit or pension planning. We'll run your numbers.

Do I pay tax on my Amazon payouts or my sales?

Your sales. Amazon's disbursements arrive net of referral fees, FBA fees, storage and refunds — so your bank always shows less than you sold. Your turnover is the gross sales figure, the fees are expenses against it, and the £90,000 VAT threshold is measured on sales too. Books built from payouts understate turnover — and since 2024 Amazon reports your income to HMRC, so the mismatch is visible.

Let's make your store's numbers make sense.
