“We have been using GroForth’s services for over a year. We engaged them during a period of change in our organisation. With their support we implemented a new accounting package, reviewed and updated our sales and supplier invoicing processes, implemented new options for easier customer payments and eliminated procedures which were no longer working for us. By engaging with Groforth ultimately, we enhanced our financial management reporting and built additional resilience into our processes. The book-keeping team in GroForth are easy to deal with, knowledgeable and responsive.”
TAX RECORDS
01 Worried about tax compliance?
02 Unsure what records to keep?
03 Need help with VAT returns?
If, like many business owners, you are not confident that you have the knowledge to manage your tax affairs yourself, this is where GroForth can help.
Whether it’s registering for VAT or VIES, preparing for a Revenue desk audit or checking that you have the necessary documentation for your tax return, our team is on hand to answer your tax queries.
We provide tax compliance support for sole traders, entrepreneurial start-ups and SMEs.
Our tax record services include:
Our services can be tailored to suit your individual needs and include bookkeeping and payroll support. Good record keeping is essential to avoid problems with Revenue which is why many of our clients outsource their bookkeeping and payroll to GroForth.
VAT: We can ensure that you understand your VAT thresholds, rates and what you can and can’t reclaim. We will also review and reconcile your VAT reconciliation before the VAT deadline.
RTD: This Return of Trading Details is completed annually. We reconcile the VAT and ensure that the RTD is verified and filed with the Revenue.
RCT: This Relevant Contracts withholding tax applies to certain payments by principal contractors to subcontractors in the construction, forestry and meat-processing industries. We can help ensure you comply with the RCT rules.
INTRASTAT:
Intrastat is the system for collecting statistics on the trade in goods between European Union member states. In addition to goods that have been bought and sold, Intrastat also covers goods that have moved between EU countries for other reasons. If you need to provide an Intrastat declaration, we can help with this.
VIES: VAT Information Exchange System. VIES provides a mechanism whereby checks can be made in each EU Member State on the validity of claims to zero- rating. It helps to detect unreported movements of zero-rated goods between EU Member States. If you are a VAT registered business supplying zero-rate goods, services or both to a VAT registered trader in another Member State we can help you with your VIES statement.
MOSS: MINI ONE-STOP-SHOP. The Value-Added Tax mini one-stop-shop (MOSS) scheme is a simplification measure for submitting returns and paying VAT to EU member states. We can explain the process and help you submit your return.
Benefits of outsourcing tax record services include:
For many GroForth clients, a key benefit of outsourcing their tax compliance to us is the peace of mind they get from knowing their accounts are up to date and they are ready to meet their tax filing deadlines. Other benefits include:
Compliance: We keep up to date with legislation, so you don’t have to.
Expertise: Our ACCA accredited staff members and bookkeeping team can provide accurate advice and assistance to you with filing taxes.
Convenience:
We schedule reminders of your tax deadlines and ensure that your outstanding queries are reconciled on time. We will calculate your tax liability (or refund if a refund is due) and we can file the return on your behalf.
Consistency:
Eliminate the risk of relying on a single in-house bookkeeper — we provide a qualified and experienced team to ensure your tax deadlines are met, regardless of staff sickness/holidays.
