If I file my VAT return early does the DD come out early too?

[bramblina]

I always file my VAT return on the last day to eek out the payment date but this week am in a position to not have to cut it so fine...do you know if the DD will come out earlier?

I've never used the direct debit ! I always pay by fps at the last minute

No it doesn't comes out on due date. The online message when you submit return will tell you earliest date that they will take out money

Sorry bad punctuation should have said money comes out on due date rather than them taking it early

Thanks, all.

How do I know the due date without filing the return?
