Sole Traders

As a sole trader, HMRC requires you to manage your own bookkeeping and tax filings. It can feel overwhelming to do it all yourself, but Barrie Ingram’s accounting services make the process simple—so you can focus on running your business.

Sole Traders / Self Employed

When starting out on business this may be alongside your employed position being part-time or it may be after retiring or redundancy, in all circumstances mentioned here there is a need to complete a tax return. The Tax returns in the UK are called self assessments and you choose these sections to disclose your trade.

If you are self employed or sole trading it is all considered self employed with HMRC and the only consideration is a short Self assessment or a full self assessment. In both you have to state your trade where you are trading from, which is a business address and state your start and finish dates if within the current tax year and the dates you are reporting on this tax year.

Depending on your turnover there are other considerations and although its self assessment the HMRC requires you to be quite conversant with the tax rules to declare your sales and  claim an allowable expenses.

We can not only prepare accounts and your self assessment that you claim allowance in accordance with HMRC rules, we will be able to work out what other hidden agendas may exist while seemingly running a simple business. Keeping you modern, efficient and compliant.

In our initial meetings we discuss what your business entails and what your goals are helping you as we chat with areas that are deemed to be important in the eyes of regulation and those that seem to be causing you some stress.

We can continue to discuss all areas ongoing through your business journey as we are available 7 days a week 08.30hrs to 20.30 hrs, by telephone whats app and email.

When your business is growing we will be there monitoring it with you.
