VAT & Accounts

VAT returns, limited company accounts and corporation tax filing for businesses with either client-prepared records or ongoing monthly accounting.

Statutory compliance

VAT, company accounts and corporation tax.

Compliance can be provided either as part of an ongoing monthly accounting relationship or from complete client-prepared records.

The distinction matters: filing-only work does not include routine bookkeeping, month-end close or evidence checking unless specifically agreed.

01

VAT returns

Preparation and submission based on the accounting records and evidence available for the VAT period.

02

Statutory accounts

Annual company accounts prepared from the bookkeeping records and supporting information provided.

03

Corporation tax

Corporation tax return and supporting computation prepared alongside the annual accounts where included in scope.

Evidence required

Payment is not the whole accounting record.

Where a VAT claim or accounting treatment depends on supporting evidence, the invoice, receipt or other appropriate record still matters. A bank transaction can be reconciled while the evidence behind the accounting treatment remains incomplete.

  • Complete bank and card records
  • Relevant sales and purchase invoices
  • Explanations for non-obvious business transactions
  • Payroll and other supporting records where relevant
  • Clear identification of personal or director-related transactions
Client-prepared compliance

Low-touch filing assumes clean books.

This route is for clients who maintain their own complete bookkeeping and records.

VAT return — client prepared£100 / quarter
Accounts + CT600 — client prepared£380 / year

Bookkeeping, month-end close, evidence checking and historic clean-up are not included unless separately agreed.
