Is it possible to turn off VAT Enabled for a business that has de-registered for VAT?

Good to see you here, hello-anne-marie.

Let's make sure you're able to get you VAT set-up accordingly.

In QuickBooks Online once we turned on the VAT feature, there will be no option to turn this off. As a workaround, you can set your default VAT code as Out of Scope of Tax or  No VAT for all their future transactions. 

To do this please follow the below steps:

1. Log into QuickBooks Online.

2. Go to the Gear icon.

3. Select Account and Settings.

4. Click Advanced from the left-hand options.

5. Under the section Accounting click the edit icon.

6. Change Default tax rate selection to No VAT.

7. Click Save and then Done.
