Create your bespoke sole trader package
What accounting services do I require
If you’re self employed as a sole trader and have earned more than £1000 (in a single tax year) you need to send a Self Assessment tax return to HMRC, 9 months after the tax year has ended.
For example, the 2020-21 tax year ended on the 6th of April 2021, the deadline for filing your tax return is the 31st January 2022.
Although, you can complete and file your own Self Assessment tax return, hiring an accountant can save you time, money and ensure you’ve completed your tax return correctly and on time.
You will need to register and run payroll if you pay any of your staff more than £120.00 a week.
You must register for VAT and submit regular VAT returns to HMRC, if your turnover reaches more than £85,000.
