What’s included in the monthly fee?
Our limited company accounting packages start from £109 + VAT per month. Every package includes your annual accounts, Corporation Tax return, confirmation statement (including the standard Companies House fee), payroll for one director, one director’s personal tax return, Xero, tax investigation insurance (subject to eligibility and policy terms), an annual accounts meeting, a 30-minute tax planning review and everyday accounting and tax questions. VAT return review and filing is included from £149 + VAT per month.
Is bookkeeping included?
No. The packages cover your accounts, tax and compliance, and assume your bookkeeping is kept up to date. If you’d like us to do your bookkeeping, we can, and we’ll quote for it based on what your business needs.
Do you file VAT returns?
Yes, from the £149 package upwards. We review your figures, make reasonable corrections and file the return with HMRC. It’s a review of properly kept records, not full bookkeeping. The £109 package doesn’t include VAT return review or filing by MBS, so if you need us to file your VAT returns you’ll need the £149 package or above, whatever your turnover. If your company is VAT registered but files its own returns, that’s fine on any package.
Can I use my own accounting software?
Already have suitable accounting software of your own, such as Xero, QuickBooks Online or FreeAgent? Because we don’t need to supply the subscription, you save £18 a month on the £109 package (which otherwise includes Xero Ignite), or £39 a month on the £149, £169 and £199 packages (which otherwise include Xero Grow). The discount is subject to your software being suitable, which we’ll confirm on your discovery call.
Is there an onboarding fee?
No, there’s no standard onboarding fee. If there’s catch-up work, such as overdue filings or historical corrections, we’ll quote for it separately and agree it with you first.
Can I ask questions whenever I need to?
Yes. We’re here when you need us for everyday accounting questions. If something needs more substantial work, like specialist tax advice, extra meetings or a bigger project, we’ll always discuss it with you and agree any fee first.
