As a sole trader, there’s plenty to keep you up at night. With Zip Accounting, your tax return doesn’t have to be one of them.
I’ll prepare your Self-Assessment tax return and file it with HMRC on your behalf.
Tax returns are often complex to complete and require a knowledge of tax legislation. Partnering with Zip Accounting will provide peace of mind that it is being done correctly.
Once your return is complete and submitted to HMRC, I’ll clearly explain how much tax you owe, when it’s due, and notify you of any repayments owed to you. And if HMRC needs a nudge, I’ll chase them on your behalf.
With Zip Accounting, you can trust that your self-assessment tax return is handled accurately and efficiently—freeing you up to focus on your business.
Sole Trader Accounts
- Zip Accounting prepares a Profit & Loss account and (where applicable) a Balance Sheet with every sole trader tax return.
- These reports help you understand your business performance and can support financial decision-making.
- Lenders often require formal accounts, even for sole traders, when assessing business finance applications.
Your accounts are more than a tax requirement—they’re a window into your business’s financial health.
As a sole trader, you’re not legally required to prepare formal annual accounts—but having them is often a smart move. At Zip Accounting, I prepare a set of accounts to accompany every sole trader tax return, including a detailed Profit and Loss account and, where appropriate, a Balance Sheet. These documents aren’t just for show—they provide a clear overview of how your business has performed over the year and offer valuable insight to support your decision-making.
With Zip Accounting, you can be sure your tax obligations will rest in safe hands, and that you have a firm grasp on the financial health of your business.
