Hello KALEM,
Welcome to the Community - thank you for your question!
To record this payment, we advise to create a one-off expense account to use for this transaction. Go to Accounting > Chart of Accounts > New. Select Expenses as the account type, and Taxes Paid as the detail type - call this whatever you would like. Once saved, create an expense by going to the + icon > Expense and record the payment against this new account you have created. Going forward, QuickBooks will automatically use the VAT Control/Suspense accounts for future filings/payments.
Thanks,
Talia
