Fixed fees, scoped up front

How our UK pricing works

You will know the number before we start. Every engagement is scoped first, priced as a fixed fee, and agreed in writing before any work begins.

Fixed and agreed up frontOne figure for the engagement, confirmed in writing before we begin

Never by the hourYou are not funding our time, and a hard question does not raise the bill

Never a percentageNo fee tied to the size of an R&D claim, a repayment or a relief

Scope stated, with exclusionsWhat is included is written down, and so is what is not

01What shapes your fee

Two kinds of UK engagement, each priced on what the work actually involves

No two positions cost the same, so we do not publish a standard rate. These are the things that move the number when we scope it. All quotes exclude VAT.

Individuals

Your personal UK filings

Company directors and shareholders, people with share options, anyone arriving in or leaving the UK, investors, and families planning ahead.

What moves the number

✓How many sources of income there are

✓Residence, and whether it is your first year here

✓Share options, crypto or capital gains to report

✓Whether any years are outstanding

Your figure comes from a free scoping call, and it is fixed and agreed in writing before any work starts.

Business

Your company’s year

First companies, owner-managed companies, groups and scale-ups, UK subsidiaries of overseas parents, and UK businesses trading abroad.

What moves the number

✓How many entities you run

✓Payroll, and how many people are on it

✓VAT, and the condition of the bookkeeping

✓Whether the business trades in more than one country

Your figure comes from a free scoping call, and it is fixed and agreed in writing before any work starts.

Why there is no price list here.

Two clients with the same job title can need very different work, and a published rate would be wrong for most of them. We would rather scope your actual position, quote one figure for it, and hold that figure, than put a number on a web page that neither of us can rely on. The scoping call and the quote are free, and you are under no obligation after either.

02Before we can price it

Some UK positions need a conversation first

None of these cost more by default. They just cannot be priced honestly from a web page, so we scope them on a call.

Anything on the US side

UK and US filings that need to run together are handled by the corridor practice rather than here.

More than one entity, or a group

Consolidation, intercompany and group relief change the shape of the work.

Several years outstanding

The scope depends on how many years are open and what was filed, if anything.

An HMRC enquiry in progress

We will tell you what it is and what it needs before we quote for it.

Property income or gains

That sits with UK Property Accountants, our specialist group firm, not with us.

Inheritance tax, trusts or estates

Planning work is scoped to the question in front of us, not to a return.

A short set of questions about structure, people and where you trade. 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.
