When you are setting up a business in the UK you need to understand a wide range of tax and financial implications, including:
- structuring your business in the UK and at a parent level
- payroll and managing your staff
- bookkeeping and managing your financial accounts
- lodging your business tax returns
- when to register and charge VAT
- capital gains tax
If you are expanding an existing business, the activities may seem similar to what you currently do in your business, however, the tax laws and regulations may differ depending on which country you are expanding to the UK from.
We can assist by providing the necessary tax advice on structuring your business and the tax obligations in the UK. We will register your business and can provide ongoing bookkeeping and accounting services.
