    Import VAT through clearing agent - which block on VAT201?

    Hi everyone, hope you are are well.
    I have a quick query about import VAT. I last did this a while ago so I have forgotten what to do. We have moved from Quickbooks to a new accounting system, Omni Accounts.

    I have a tax invoice from our clearing agent with a pure VAT line item for the customs VAT they paid on our behalf for a shipment. Does this amount go into block 14 (std VAT) or block 15A (std VAT on imports) on the VAT 201?
    I am confusing myself because the invoice is from an SA supplier, which makes me think it goes into block 14. But then, we did the import, so should it go into block 15A rather?

    Any help appreciated

    Block 15A, or else an SD14 will be really difficult to do.
