Qubic Advisory Services Ltd Successfully Appeals HMRC Penalties for Invoicing and Record-Keeping Breach

  • Qubic Advisory Services Ltd appealed against penalties imposed by HMRC for breaching invoicing and record-keeping requirements
  • The penalties amounted to £14,821,830 under section 69A, Value Added Tax Act 1994
  • QASL argued that the requirements did not apply to them as the relevant investment gold was never delivered to customers
  • The Upper Tribunal allowed the appeal, stating that QASL did not have to meet the invoicing and record-keeping requirements
  • This decision provides commentary on the limits of record-keeping and invoicing requirements in VAT Regulations.
