Frequently asked questions
What exactly does an accountant for sole traders do?
An accountant for sole traders prepares your Self Assessment tax return, ensures you claim all allowable expenses, and helps you meet HMRC deadlines. They also offer advice on record keeping, VAT registration, and can help with tax planning to reduce your liability. They act as your financial partner, keeping your business compliant and financially organised.
How do I know if an accountant is properly qualified?
Look for accountants who are members of recognised professional bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. These qualifications require rigorous training and ongoing professional development. You can verify an accountant's status by checking the register on the relevant body's website or by asking the accountant for their membership number. AccountingFirms only lists verified and regulated professionals.
What is the difference between a sole trader and a limited company?
A sole trader is a self-employed individual who owns and runs their business alone, keeping all profits after tax. A limited company is a separate legal entity with its own tax obligations, including Corporation Tax. Sole traders have simpler accounting requirements but are personally liable for business debts, whereas limited companies offer limited liability protection.
How can an accountant help me with my HMRC tax return?
An accountant can complete and submit your Self Assessment tax return to HMRC on your behalf, ensuring accuracy and timeliness. They will review your income and expenses, identify all allowable deductions, and calculate the correct tax due. They can also deal with HMRC correspondence and help you set up a payment plan if you owe tax.
Do I need to register for VAT as a sole trader?
You must register for VAT if your taxable turnover exceeds the current VAT threshold, which is £90,000. However, you can also voluntarily register if you wish to reclaim VAT on business purchases. An accountant can advise you on whether voluntary registration is beneficial for your specific situation and help you complete the registration process.
What records do I need to keep for my accountant?
You need to keep records of all income and expenses, including invoices, receipts, bank statements, and any records of personal money taken from the business. You should also keep records of any equipment or assets you buy for your business. Your accountant can guide you on the best way to organise these records, whether using spreadsheets or accounting software.
