Frequently Asked Questions

What is CIS invoicing?

CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) requires contractors to deduct 20% or 30% from subcontractor payments. Experi calculates deductions on labour (not materials), shows your UTR, and creates compliant invoices.

What is reverse charge VAT?

Reverse charge shifts VAT responsibility to your customer. You invoice the net amount (no VAT), and they account for VAT to HMRC. Required for B2B construction services and some wholesale goods.

Can I use CIS and reverse charge together?

Yes. For construction services, both can apply. CIS deduction calculated on labour portion, customer accounts for VAT on the full amount. Experi handles both correctly.

How does late payment interest work?

UK law allows B2B businesses to charge 8% + Bank of England base rate interest, plus £40-£100 compensation per invoice. Experi calculates automatically and can include in chase emails.

What VAT rates are supported?

Standard (20%), reduced (5%), zero (0%), exempt, and outside scope. Each line item can have its own rate, and the invoice shows a breakdown by rate category.
