Trade abroad. Keep the UK side straight.
Selling, hiring or holding assets in another country changes what the UK expects of you. We keep the UK position clean while you expand, and tell you when a local adviser is genuinely needed.
The business is UK-based. The activity is not, entirely.
Most cross-border problems are not discovered when they start. They are discovered a year later, by a letter, an auditor, or a customer’s finance team asking a question nobody has an answer to.
Not sure what you have triggered?
Tell us where you sell, where your people are, and what you hold abroad. We will map the UK obligations and flag what needs a local adviser.
The UK side, done properly, with the overseas side coordinated
We are your UK advisers. Where a country needs a local specialist, we say so and work alongside them rather than pretending otherwise.
UK accounts & corporation tax
Statutory accounts and the CT600, with overseas income, branches and reliefs reflected properly.
See the service →VAT & overseas indirect tax
UK VAT on cross-border supplies, place of supply, and where a local registration is likely to be required.
Talk to us →Employing people abroad
Where payroll is due, social security positions, and whether a person creates a presence for the company.
Talk to us →Overseas entities & branches
Whether to use one, where it should sit, and how it reports back into the UK numbers.
Talk to us →Double tax relief & withholding
Treaty positions, relief for foreign tax suffered, and the paperwork that has to exist to claim it.
Talk to us →Transfer pricing & intercompany
Pricing between your UK company and anything you own abroad, documented before anyone asks.
Talk to us →The UK does not stop caring once you cross a border
These are the areas where UK obligations follow overseas activity. Each is manageable when it is identified early, and expensive when it is identified by someone else.
Scoped, priced, then started
You will know the number before we start
Every engagement is scoped before it is priced. You get one figure for the work, with what is included and what is not written down beside it, agreed before anything starts. Never hourly, so a difficult question does not raise the bill. Never a percentage of a claim or a relief.
What it comes to depends on how the business is built and where it operates — how many countries you sell into, who is working abroad, and what sits overseas. That is a short conversation, not a list price.
Get a fixed quote →Tell us where you operate.
A short set of questions about where you sell, where your people are, and what you hold abroad. We come back with a scope and a fixed price. If we are not the right firm for you, we will say so rather than quote for it.
