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![]()

Healthcare accounting covers the same core work as any accountancy service, but it is shaped by the way clinical income and healthcare businesses operate. That includes dealing with NHS salary and pension income alongside private fees, understanding which medical services are exempt from VAT, handling associate or partnership profit arrangements in dental and GP practices, and applying the correct treatment to locum and agency income. It also means recognising sector-specific costs such as professional registration, indemnity insurance and clinical equipment, so they are treated properly in your accounts and tax returns.
The service suits self-employed healthcare professionals and healthcare businesses alike. That includes GPs and locum doctors, dentists and dental associates, pharmacists and pharmacy owners, nurses and nurse practitioners, physiotherapists, podiatrists, private consultants, and carers or care providers. It also covers clinics, medical practices and healthcare companies operating as sole traders, partnerships or limited companies, along with practice managers who oversee the finances. If your income comes from clinical or care-based work, the chances are your tax position has quirks worth getting right.
It depends on your circumstances. Many NHS employees are taxed through PAYE and have no filing obligation, but you may need to file if you also earn private fees, locum income, medicolegal fees, rental income, or income from teaching and speaking. Having multiple sources of income, or untaxed income that PAYE does not cover, generally brings you into Self Assessment. We review your income sources and confirm whether a return is required, then prepare and file it if it is.
Yes. We prepare statutory annual accounts, file Corporation Tax returns and handle confirmation statements for healthcare companies. We also advise on director salary and dividend planning, the tax implications of retaining profit in the company, and whether incorporation continues to make sense as your income and workload change. If you have employees, payroll and pension auto-enrolment duties can be managed alongside your company accounts so the whole picture stays consistent.
Commonly claimed costs include professional body and registration fees, indemnity or medical defence insurance, continuing professional development, specialist equipment and its maintenance, uniforms, and travel to temporary or multiple work locations. The rules are detailed, particularly around travel between sites and expenses that mix personal and professional use, such as a home office or a vehicle. We look at what you actually spend and apply the rules properly, so claims are defensible if HMRC asks questions rather than simply optimistic.
Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, but not everything a practice does falls into that category. Some treatments, procedures and product sales are standard-rated, and once taxable turnover passes the registration threshold, registration usually becomes compulsory. Mixed NHS and private income can make the calculation less straightforward than it first appears. We review your income streams, confirm the correct treatment and handle VAT returns and registration where needed.
Bookkeeping and payroll can be handled on your behalf, which is often the most useful part of the arrangement for busy clinicians. We keep your records current, process payslips and PAYE submissions, manage pension auto-enrolment, and make sure the figures feeding your accounts and tax returns are accurate. You can also keep bookkeeping in-house if you prefer, in which case we will work from your records and flag anything that needs attention before deadlines arrive.
Yes, the process works well remotely. Most records and correspondence can be shared securely online, and meetings can be held by phone or video at times that fit around clinics and surgery hours. Getting started begins with a conversation about your circumstances, where your income comes from and what you need most help with. From there we review your current accounting and tax position, explain what needs to change, and set out how we would handle your bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, Self Assessment or company accounts going forward.
