We consider short-range mass-subcritical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations and we show that the corresponding solutions with initial data in $\Sigma$ scatter in $H^1$. Hence we up-grade the classical scattering result proved by Yajima and Tsutsumifrom $L^2$ to $H^1$.We also provide some partial results concerning the scattering of the first order moments, as well as a short proof via lens transform of a classical result due to Tsutsumi and Cazenave-Weissler on the scattering in $\Sigma$.
