What is a VAT self-billing arrangement?

Self-billing is an arrangement between a supplier (your PSC) and a customer (your agency or client). Both customer and supplier must be VAT registered.


The customer prepares the supplier’s invoice and forwards a copy to the supplier with the payment.

If you want to put a self-billing arrangement in place you do not have to tell HMRC or get approval from them, but you do have to:

  • get your supplier or customer to agree to the arrangement
  • meet certain conditions
