I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.Posted on Google![]()

I had a positive experience with Accotax. The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.Posted on Google![]()

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.Posted on Google![]()

I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.Posted on Google![]()

It covers the standard compliance work — annual accounts, tax returns, bookkeeping, payroll and VAT — but applied to the way healthcare income and costs arise. In practice that often means reporting NHS salary alongside private practice or locum fees, calculating partnership profit shares for GP or dental practices, advising on associate dentist schedules, tracking professional expenses such as indemnity cover and registration fees, and dealing with VAT where a business provides both exempt medical care and standard-rated services or goods. The objective is a tax position that is accurate, complete and tailored to clinical work.
If you work as a locum, associate or self-employed practitioner, you are responsible for registering with HMRC where required, reporting your income and paying the correct tax and National Insurance. Many clinicians manage this themselves for a while, then find that complications appear — multiple engagers, expenses spread across several roles, payments on account, or a limited company structure to maintain. An accountant can help you report accurately, claim the reliefs you are entitled to and plan for tax bills rather than being surprised by them.
The income is reported together on your tax return, but the way it is recorded matters. NHS salary is normally taxed through PAYE, while private fees, locum payments and some other clinical income are usually reported separately and may not have tax deducted. Where the private element is significant, we review whether expenses are being attributed correctly, whether payments on account need adjusting and whether your current structure remains the most suitable one. Practice and partnership income is handled differently again, through partnership returns and profit allocations.
Medical care provided by appropriately registered healthcare professionals is generally exempt from VAT. However, not everything a practice or clinic does falls into that category. Cosmetic and aesthetic treatments, non-medical goods, retail sales in a pharmacy and certain other supplies can be standard-rated, and a business that sells a mixture of exempt and taxable items may need to deal with partial exemption. Getting the treatment right from the outset avoids adjustments and penalties later.
Keep records of all income — payslips, locum statements, private fee receipts, partnership profit allocations and any other payments — along with evidence of expenses such as professional indemnity insurance, registration and appraisal fees, CPD, specialist equipment, mileage between sites, professional subscriptions and a fair proportion of home running costs if you work from home. Bank statements, invoices and receipts should be filed regularly rather than left until the filing deadline. Digital record keeping makes the whole process faster and reduces the risk of missing a legitimate claim.
Yes. We support healthcare professionals and healthcare businesses who work with us remotely as well as in person, using secure digital sharing of documents and straightforward communication by phone, email or video call. The process starts with a conversation about your circumstances, followed by a review of your current accounting and tax position, then a clear plan for the ongoing services you need. You do not need to be local to us for the service to work well.
Switching is usually simpler than people expect. We ask for authorisation to act on your behalf, contact your previous accountant for the relevant records and professional clearance, and take over the compliance timetable from the agreed point. The main thing is timing — a change mid-way through a tax year can be managed, but it is cleaner if it is planned around your year-end and filing deadlines. We will set out the steps and what we need from you before anything changes.
Yes. Practice and clinic payroll often includes a mix of salaried staff, part-time clinicians and occasional locum payments, with varying hours and rates that need to be processed accurately each period. We handle PAYE calculations, payslips, RTI submissions, starter and leaver paperwork, and auto-enrolment pension administration, including assessing which staff need to be enrolled and how contributions should be calculated. Keeping this side organised also makes your year-end accounts and any pension queries far easier to deal with.
