Read my Staff SpotlightHaving the benefit of unlimited support from your own sole trader tax expert can be incredibly reassuring. Your accountant will help you stay compliant, and claim any expenses, allowances, or relief you're entitled to. You're more likely to save money in the long run, and we'll be ready to act on your behalf in the rare event of an HMRC inspection, at no additional cost.
You won't be passed around by accounts managers. You'll be able to talk directly to your dedicated accountant, who will provide proactive tax efficiency guidance whenever you need them to. We'll even take care of things like switching from your previous accountant so you don't need to do anything. Being a sole trader doesn’t mean you’re alone!
Every sole trader is unique, so the type of accounting support you need might vary depending on your circumstances. All sole traders need to report their earnings, so we’ll inform HMRC about your business income, as well as any other earnings, so they can work out how much tax you owe. It's included in your fee as standard, along with a full set of accounts.
Beyond tax compliance and efficiency, there are lots of other ways your accountant can offer support as your business evolves and grows. For instance, bookkeeping to record your income and expenses, payroll if you take on staff, or VAT. Not all accountants will offer every service you need, so it's crucial to shop around to find what works best for you.
Rather than bundling everything together and charging you for things you might not use, we provide additional services you can add and remove as needed, for low monthly fees.

Free DownloadYes, your fee includes either Self Assessment or MTD Income Tax depending on which you need. Don't worry if you're not too sure which you should use - we're here to help! Learn more about MTD Income Tax.
If you use MTD Income Tax you can either send quarterly updates (and your accountant will make any adjustments when they finalise everything with your tax return), or you can add quarterly submissions to your service for £35.00 per month.
No, not if you don't want to! Free access to Pandle Pro is included, but we'll work with you on whichever bookkeeping software you're using. If you do use Pandle, our bookkeeping team will carry out proactive record checks at no extra cost.
If the total amount of self-employment income you get in a tax year is more than the £1,000 tax-free trading allowance then yes, you'll need to sign up with HMRC and start reporting your income and expenses.
Yes, you can. There are several options to choose from, with each business structure offering its own considerations around legal liability and paying tax. Registering as a sole trader is pretty straightforward and tends to involve less admin, but you can swap to something else (such as a limited company, for example) if this suits you better. Your accountant will carry out a detailed tax efficiency review every year, but you can ask them about this at any time.
Sole traders currently need to submit Self Assessment tax returns before 31st January each year. Some people will need to start using Making Tax Digital for Income Tax from April 2026, depending on how much you get from self-employment and property. This change means you'll need to submit updates to HMRC on a quarterly basis as well as submitting a final tax return.
There isn't a straightfoward answer to this, because it depends on how much you earn, your expenses, and any other income you might have! Learn more about how sole trader tax works in our rates and thresholds article.
