Callum from The Accountancy Partnership recently filed my year-end accounts and made the whole process really straightforward. Callum was excellent throughout - clear, helpful and efficient, and he made everything feel simple from start to finish. A very smooth experience and I’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for reliable accountancy support.
Ben Chetham
As a first-year sole trader, I was a little unsure about the accounting side of things, but James has been incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. He is very knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to guide me through everything, making it much less stressful than I expected.
Hayley Crean
Kieran McCann provided outstanding support in helping me file my corporation tax return within an extremely tight timeframe. The last-minute situation was entirely my own fault, but Kieran remained calm, professional, and incredibly responsive throughout the process. Thanks to his efficiency and dedication, we managed to meet the deadline and avoid what would likely have been a fine. He was always responsible, supportive, and available whenever I needed guidance.

Read Staff SpotlightAre you a brand new eBay seller? Get 40% off for 3 months.
Between working out what a tax identification number is, to setting up a separate business bank account, managing inventory, recording VAT and beyond, we know online sellers already have a lot to think about.
To ease the pressure and help your finances whilst you’re starting out we offer 40% off our accountancy services for 3 months to new businesses.
What structure will you use for your eBay business?
Becoming an eBay seller means you can use the platform to run your business, but you’ll also need to register your business with HMRC so you can report your earnings and pay tax on the profits. For a lot of businesses this means operating as either a sole trader or a limited company, but there are other alternatives too, so it all depends on your own personal circumstances.
Our team know it can feel overwhelming! We’ll talk you through everything you need to know, helping you choose the best fit for your needs. You can reach us using live chat or by phoning 020 3355 4047. If you form a limited company we’ll even register you with Companies House, and guide you through the process of registering everyone involved, saving you up to £120!
Transferring from another accountant
Moving to a new accountant shouldn’t ever be stressful! We’ll take care of the entire process for you, making sure you have the right support in place from the very beginning, without any interruptions.
We’ll start by contacting your previous provider to transfer everything we need – a process known as professional clearance – and liaise with HMRC so they know we’re acting for you. So you can focus on getting to know you new accountant!
Video call your accountant
Schedule video calls with your dedicated accountant for personalised, unlimited advice tailored to your business.

No, eBay will report any earnings you make on the platform to HMRC, but you’ll still need to submit a tax return and pay what you owe separately.
There won’t be an announcement if you decide to start an eBay sidehustle, but it’s possible someone could identify your seller profile depending on what sort of information is visible. If you operate as a limited company then your business details will be publicly available on the Companies House register for anyone to search.
Yes, you’ll normally be able to reclaim selling and listing fees as an expense against your tax bill. eBay might also make deductions for things like VAT though, so you won’t be able to claim that as an expense! Our eBay fee calculator will help you estimate your profit margins.
