Complete integration
Built for accountants and businesses that already have bookkeeping software - keep using your old software and just submit your figures to HMRC.
Upload from Excel or CSV
Upload a CSV or Excel (.xlsx) file with your Box 1 to Box 9 figures. Swift VAT Pro matches your figures to the 9 VAT boxes so you can check them before you submit.
Secure HMRC connection
You connect to HMRC by signing in on HMRC's own page, so Swift VAT Pro never sees or stores your HMRC password. We also require secure passwords for all Swift VAT Pro users.
