We have partnered with an accountancy firm who specialise in providing accounting services to new businesses. This accountancy firm will send you a welcome e-mail within 2 working days of your company being incorporated.
You may then arrange a consultation with the firm, via Skype or telephone, which is free for the first 30 minutes. Alternatively, you may put questions to them by e-mail. The purpose of this initial consultation is to introduce you to their accountancy services and discuss your accounting and taxation concerns.
Please note that you should negotiate your fees with the accountancy firm directly.
Let our expert VAT partners take care of your company VAT registration. As soon as it is registered you will receive an e-mail containing a link to what happens next. Our VAT agents will then be in touch to help process your VAT registration application to HMRC.
HMRC should process this in 20 to 30 days. Once your application has been successful, our VAT partner will e-mail you the VAT Registration Number. HMRC will also send you the VAT registration certificate by post.
PAYE stands for “Pay As You Earn”. Every limited company, even if the director is the sole employee, must register with HMRC (Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs) to set up its own payroll, which deducts income tax and national insurance contributions from the salaries paid to all staff employed by the company.
You must register your company for PAYE before your employees’ first payday and it can take up to 2 weeks to get your PAYE reference number as an employer. On the other hand, you may not register more than 2 months before you begin to pay staff.
As soon as your company is incorporated our PAYE registration partner will contact you to arrange for your registration as an employer.
