Frequently asked questions
What should a charity look for in an accountant?
A charity should seek an accountant with experience in fund accounting, Gift Aid, and Charity Commission reporting. Qualifications such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT demonstrate technical competence. It is also important that the accountant understands HMRC requirements for charities and can advise on VAT and Corporation Tax exemptions. Checking that the firm is regulated and has positive client feedback helps ensure reliable service.
How do accountants help charities with HMRC compliance?
Accountants assist charities with HMRC compliance by preparing accurate tax returns, advising on Gift Aid claims, and ensuring VAT treatment is correct. They help identify exemptions and reliefs available to charities, reducing unnecessary tax liabilities. They also support trustees with Self Assessment where needed and keep organisations informed of deadline changes, helping avoid penalties and maintaining good standing with HMRC.
Are ACCA or ICAEW accountants better for charities?
Both ACCA and ICAEW accountants are highly qualified and regulated, so either can be suitable for a charity. The key is the individual accountant's experience with charitable organisations. Some firms specialise in the not-for-profit sector and hold additional expertise in fund accounting and legacy income. Checking credentials and client reviews helps determine the best fit for a charity's specific needs.
What records must a charity keep for tax purposes?
A charity must keep records of all income and expenditure, including donations, grants, and trading activity. Records should support Gift Aid claims, VAT returns, and annual accounts. HMRC requires records to be kept for at least six years from the end of the accounting period. Accurate bookkeeping helps accountants prepare tax returns and ensures compliance during any review.
How can AccountingFirms help me find a charity accountant?
AccountingFirms allows users to browse and compare qualified accountants by location and specialism. The directory lists verified professionals, including those with ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT qualifications. Users can read about services offered, check credentials, and contact firms directly. This makes it easier to find an accountant experienced in charity finance and HMRC requirements.
Do charities need to submit a Self Assessment tax return?
Most charities do not submit a Self Assessment tax return for the charity itself, but trustees may need to file one for personal income related to the charity, such as honoraria. Additionally, charities with trading income above certain thresholds may need to complete a tax return. An accountant can clarify obligations and ensure any required returns are filed correctly with HMRC.
