In order for EAS to be able to file your UK VAT reports you need to connect your UK VAT account to the filing solution developed by EAS.
This is the second step of the process. Before connecting your HMRC Gateway to MTD you need to enable the VAT service in your HMRC Gateway account. See the manual here: Connecting VAT services to your HRMC account
You will need your Government gateway ID (12 digits) and your password to access the Government gateway. In most cases you have already accessed the Government gateway and have the ID and the password in your browser. If you have not saved it in your browser , search your e-mail with "HMRC" as the search word and you will find the message received from HMRC. You can always restore the password if you have lost it by going to the HMRC sign in page and pressing the "I have forgotten my password":
As soon as you have you Government gateway user ID and password you can sign in for the HMRC MTD filing services using EAS dashboard.
Go the EAS dashboard and choose integrations from the setup menu in the upper right corner :
You will see the view with you current integrations. Choose "Add new integration":
Choose the HM Revenue & customs from the list :
Read the instructions and press "Next" until you come to a pop up HMRC sign-in window :
Press continue and then "Sign in to the HMRC online service" :
After that you will be forwarded to the authorisation page :
Input your government ID and the password, followed by your 2F authenticator (SMS message or authenticator app code).
When you complete the process you will see a new integration in the list of your current integrations:
From now on EAS will file your UK VAT reports automatically.
