Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

KPMG LLP is the main trading entity for KPMG in the UK. To demonstrate the ongoing commitment to fair and prompt payment, KPMG have made a change to standard payment terms, so that payment of third-party invoices for goods and services will now be made within 30 days of receipt of a correct, undisputed and properly due VAT invoice. This is a reduction from the previous 60-day timescale and will apply unless otherwise agreed in writing by a duly authorised representative. As has always been our procedure, and in line with KPMG’s corporate values, where the supplier is deemed to be a Small or Medium sized Entity (SME) the Standard payment terms remain at 30 days from receipt of a correct, undisputed, and properly due VAT invoice. We do not hold retentions from payments to sub-contractors. KPMG LLP will also settle money owed to other international KPMG member firms through ‘inter office payments’. The Standard payment terms in respect of other KPMG member firms is 45 days from receipt of a correct, undisputed, and properly due VAT invoice, again unless otherwise agreed in writing by a duly authorised representative. These terms were reverted to 45 days in March 2021 following a change to 60 days in March 2020. The figures quoted above exclude 'inter office payments'.
