Self Assessment tax returns are mandatory for sole traders, partnerships, and company directors.

But individuals who are not carrying out a trade may also need to file a tax return. Some do so to claim tax reliefs, some need to deal with state benefits, while others must report capital gains or untaxed earnings from sources such as dividends, investments and rental income.

We work with clients from all these groups, helping them keep accurate financial records, plan their taxes, and comply with the relevant laws.

Sole traders enjoy the freedom of having complete control over their businesses without being overburdened by excessive regulatory demands.

Unlike limited companies however, they are personally liable for their business finances and, in some cases, may pay more tax.

We help sole traders walk this tightrope, ensuring they are both tax efficient and compliant. We typically provide accounting, tax and business planning services to our sole trader clients.
