**Quick answer:** Every month, by the 15th of the following month, even if you had no sales. Filing online through e-Filing extends it to the 23rd.

## Detailed explanation

## The rule

Section 83 of the Revenue Code requires every VAT registrant to file P.P.30 for each calendar month, with any tax due, by the 15th of the following month.

## Online

Filing through the Revenue Department's e-Filing system usually extends the date to the 23rd, as the Revenue Department announces each year.

## No sales?

You still file.

## How AccountsOS helps

Finn works out the P.P.30 figures from your books, removes VAT you cannot claim and tracks the date. AccountsOS does not submit the return.
