Looking for a local accountant?
That is completely understandable, and traditionally the way it was always done. You would find your local high street accountant, pop in and see if they could help.
But how much would you actually see your accountant in person after that?
Two or three times throughout the year? Once? Never? From speaking to thousands of business owners over the years we've found that for most people, it’s probably not that often.
Not sure about using a remote accountant?
Look, we get it. You don't know us, we don't know you, working remotely with your accountant may not suit you. Which is exactly why we never tie you in to a long-term contract. You are free to leave whenever you want, we're just confident you won't want to!
We've been working remotely for our clients since 2020, way before anyone had uttered the words COVID, pandemic or social distancing.
You can call or email your accountant any time you like, as often as you need to, and it is all included in your monthly fee.
Moving accountant?
Switching from your accountancy firm to another doesn’t have to give you sleepless nights!

Payroll
Setting up payroll in the UK involves several steps to ensure compliance with HMRC. You must register with HMRC as an employer before the first payday. This can be done online, and it usually takes up to 5 working days to get a PAYE reference number. You’ll need HMRC-recognised payroll software to calculate wages, tax, and National Insurance. Options include HMRC's Basic PAYE Tools (for small businesses), Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, and BrightPay.
Get each employee’s P45 or Starter Checklist. Verify right-to-work documents. Set up a workplace pension scheme if required (auto-enrolment applies to eligible workers).
VAT Return
A VAT Return is a report that businesses submit to HMRC, summarizing the VAT they’ve charged on sales and the VAT they’ve paid on purchases. If more VAT has been charged than paid, the business pays the difference to HMRC. If more VAT has been paid than charged, the business can claim a refund. Who need to submit VAT return to HMRC: Businesses registered for VAT (mandatory if turnover exceeds £90,000 in a 12-month period). Voluntary registration is allowed if turnover is below this threshold. VAT return Deadline: Usually quarterly (every 3 months). Deadline: One month and 7 days after the VAT period ends. Payment must be made by the same deadline. How to submit to HMRC: Online via HMRC’s Making Tax Digital (MTD) system (most businesses must use compatible software like Xero, QuickBooks, or Sage). Manually (only for exempt businesses) if not required to follow MTD rules.
