U.K. construction suppliers have accounted for their own VAT for the last 50 years. Beginning 1 March 2021, the recipient will now account for VAT rather than the supplier. The main reason for this change is to tackle fraud worth millions of pounds per year. Typically the fraud is caused when suppliers (often subcontractors) charge the recipient (main contractor) VAT but disappear’ before passing these sums on to the HMRC.

Over the last year, we’ve all experienced a broad range of emotions and viewpoints when it comes to travel. Some of us never stopped travelling. Some of us are just able to pick it back up again in some form. Some of us are planning work trips for the summer. Although travelling for work looks different and can feel unfamiliar, it’s also changed for the better in many ways.
Im letzten Jahr haben wir eine Achterbahnfahrt an Emotionen und Meinungen erlebt, wenn es ums Reisen geht. Manche haben nie aufgehört zu reisen. Manche hatten keine Wahl, andere wollten einfach Reisen. Wiederum andere fangen heute langsam wieder an zu reisen. Einige von uns planen berufliche Reisen für den frühen Sommer . Obwohl das Reisen für die Arbeit anders aussieht und sich ungewohnt anfühlen kann, hat es sich auch in vielerlei Hinsicht zum Besseren verändert. Während sich viele von uns zurückziehen, um unsere Gemeinden und Familien zu schützen, haben wir von unseren Kunden und Kontakten gelernt, die aus der Not heraus reisen.

Find the best accommodation faster with new advanced filtering in Roomex. Based on recent customer feedback and the implications of the pandemic, we’ve updated our search fields to offer customers more filters so it’s easier and faster to find the perfect accommodation.
05 January 2021 England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland have entered another lockdown to slow the spread of COVID-19 and prevent the NHS from being overwhelmed. Essential travel is still permitted in the U.K. Here is what Roomex recommends you do prior to travelling: Review national and local guidelines found below and linked. Although there is no requirement by the government to provide a ‘key worker letter’ to accommodation providers, we are recommending it at this time. Some hotels will require you to send this letter to them before arrival. If you need help writing such a letter reach out to your account manager. Ring the accommodation 24 hours prior to check in to confirm they are open. If staying in an apartment, contact the property to make arrangements for key pick up. We will also confirm bookings at this time on your behalf. After completing a booking, be on the lookout for a ‘pre-arrival check-in’ email from the hotel or from Roomex as some hotels are requesting that guests check in online so they can just collect the key upon arrival. Look for ‘RoomexClean’ rates in your platform to confirm the accommodation is cleaned to the highest standards. Before booking a bed and breakfast rate or meal allowance confirm the hotel’s restaurant is still offering take-away or room service options. We are offering vouchers that can be purchased through Roomex that your employees can use for delivery services such as JustEat and Uber Eats. Please reach out to your account manager if this is of interest to you.
