Frequently asked questions
What does an accountant for sole traders do?
An accountant for sole traders helps you manage your finances, prepare and file your Self Assessment tax return, ensure you meet HMRC deadlines, and advise on allowable expenses and tax reliefs. They can also help with VAT, bookkeeping, and financial planning, allowing you to focus on running your business whilst staying compliant.
Why should I use a qualified accountant rather than doing it myself?
A qualified accountant, such as one who is ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT certified, has in-depth knowledge of tax laws and HMRC requirements. They can identify deductions you may miss, reduce the risk of errors, and save you time. Their expertise helps you avoid penalties and ensures your tax return is accurate and submitted on time.
How much does an accountant for sole traders cost?
The cost varies depending on the complexity of your finances and the level of service you require. Many accountants offer fixed fees for basic Self Assessment preparation, whilst others charge hourly rates or monthly subscriptions for ongoing support. It is best to request quotes from several firms to compare prices and find one that fits your budget.
What records do I need to keep for my accountant?
You should keep records of all income and expenses, including invoices, receipts, bank statements, and records of any personal money used for business. If you are VAT-registered, you also need to keep VAT records. Your accountant can guide you on the specific records required and help you organise them for a smooth tax return process.
Can an accountant help me if HMRC investigates my tax return?
Yes, an accountant can represent you during an HMRC investigation, help you respond to queries, and ensure you provide the necessary information correctly. They can also review your records to identify any issues and work to resolve them. Having professional support reduces stress and helps protect your interests throughout the process.
When should I start looking for an accountant as a sole trader?
It is wise to look for an accountant as soon as you start trading or even before you begin. Early advice can help you set up proper record-keeping systems, understand your tax obligations, and plan for payments. If you are already trading, it is never too late to seek professional help, especially before the tax year ends.
