Frequently asked questions
What does an accountant for sole traders do?
An accountant for sole traders helps you manage your finances, prepare and submit your Self Assessment tax return, and ensure you meet HMRC deadlines. They also provide advice on allowable expenses, record keeping, and tax planning. By working with a professional, you can reduce your tax bill and avoid penalties, giving you more time to focus on growing your business.
How can an ACCA or ICAEW accountant help my sole trader business?
An ACCA or ICAEW accountant brings recognised expertise and up-to-date knowledge of tax laws. They can help you structure your finances efficiently, advise on VAT registration, and ensure your tax returns are accurate. Their professional standards mean you receive reliable advice, and they can represent you in dealings with HMRC if any issues arise.
Do I need to be VAT-registered as a sole trader?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold, which is £90,000. Even if you are below this, you may choose to register voluntarily. An accountant can advise on the best approach for your business, considering your income and expenses, and help you manage VAT returns and payments.
What records should I keep for my Self Assessment tax return?
You should keep records of all income and expenses, including invoices, receipts, bank statements, and any records of personal money taken from the business. HMRC requires you to keep these records for at least five years after the 31 January submission deadline. An accountant can help you organise your records and ensure you claim all allowable deductions.
How often should I meet with my accountant?
The frequency of meetings depends on your business needs. Many sole traders meet their accountant quarterly to review finances and plan for tax payments. Others may only meet annually at tax return time. Your accountant can suggest a schedule that keeps you on track and helps you avoid any surprises at the end of the tax year.
Can an accountant help me if HMRC enquires into my tax return?
Yes, an accountant can represent you during an HMRC enquiry. They will help you gather the necessary information, respond to HMRC's questions, and ensure your rights are protected. Having a professional by your side reduces stress and increases the likelihood of a favourable outcome. Your accountant will also advise on any adjustments needed.
