Instrastat reporting uk/eu

[Rc2702]

Nightmare by the looks of it so I thought I'd stick if here and find out if anyone has experience of reporting  Instrastat data to UK government. 

 

Is it a job for the Accountant and if so what kind of monthly cost versus say a quarterly vat return? 

 

I'd say 80% of our biz goes outside UK into mainland EU so we are F#cked if brexit is not negotiated correctly.

 

So anyone reporting this data and how much is if worth to an accountant compared to a vat return? Is it an accountancy task even?
