Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
CVS endeavours to process all payments to the suppliers of all CVS Group companies by their due date whilst at the same time making use of twice weekly payment runs to consolidate payments into batches of an efficient size. As a result of these scheduled payment runs, invoices are usually included for payment within days of becoming due.All invoices received by CVS are processed by the centralised Accounts Payable team, located at the company’s Head Office at CVS House, Owen Road, Diss, Norfolk, IP22 4ER (email: AccountsPayable@cvsvets.com). To maximise the prompt payment of invoices, CVS encourages all suppliers to send their invoices directly to the Accounts Payable team in order that the invoice is registered as soon as possible on the company’s accounting system and promptly sent out to the business for approval.
- Dispute resolution process
The CVS Group hasn’t published a formal dispute resolution document. However, all payment disputes for all Group companies are resolved in the same manner regardless of the size of the supplier. The company’s centralised Accounts Payable team will refer all disputed invoices to the member of staff requisitioning the goods or services for resolution. If required, the matter will be escalated within the company including involvement of Executive Directors where required. CVS endeavours to resolve all invoice disputes prior to the payment becoming due in order that no impact is made on expected payment terms.

A registry entry records what the organisation declared in its statement. It is not an independent audit. Group statements can cover several companies; BritDB preserves each exact source-supplied company-number link and excludes approver names and email addresses.
06 Ownership and control
People with significant control
No individual or entity with signficant control
- Notified
- 24 July 2017
PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
07 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
08 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
09 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
10 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
11 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
