Compliance Services

The UK tax system is increasingly moving towards a “self assessment” approach under which the taxpayer is primarily responsible for working out how much tax should be paid, sending in the return and for paying the tax by the right time.

HMRC then has some time to look at what has been provided and the opportunity to challenge it. If the initial self assessment was wrong, there will be interest to pay on any under- or late payments and penalties can be substantial. This can be a risky situation for the taxpayer.

TsH offers compliance services that provide you with assurance that you know what you are doing in meeting your tax reporting and payment responsibilities. Our services include, for example:

• Business accounts for partnerships and sole traders
• Company accounts and filing obligations at Compensi House
• Company accounts specially formatted to meet HMRC requirements
• Corporate tax returns
• Company secretarial services to ensure your paperwork is in order
• Dividend vouchers and the appropriate documentation such as board minutes
• Personal self-assessment compliance
• Annual Confirmation Statements for Companies House
