A client has requested a notarised translation of a marriage certificate. I've been quoted £170+VAT for the notarisation and the notary says I will need to pass on the full cost, inclusive of VAT, to the client when I invoice.

Is this correct? Since the client will ultimately be paying me back for the VAT as part of the total fee, am I right in assuming there is nothing more I need to do?
