Frampton & Co Chartered Accountants
Business Start-Ups

Frampton East Sussex Chartered Accountants

Starting a business in the UK can be an exciting and rewarding venture, but it also comes with many challenges and risks. One of the most important aspects of running a successful business is managing the finances and complying with the tax laws and regulations. This is where an accountant can be a valuable partner and advisor for any entrepreneur.

At Frampton & Co, we're proud to have a business portfolio comprised almost entirely of client referals - many of which specifically contacted us via a recommendation from a business owner whom we had successfully created a company and subsequently managed the finance, bookkeeping, payroll and more.

Frampton & Co have a wealth of experience and expertise in company start-ups, assisting with:

  • Choosing the best legal structure for the business, such as sole trader, partnership, limited company, or limited liability partnership. Each structure has different implications for tax, liability, and reporting requirements.

  • Registering the business with HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), the UK's tax authority, and setting up a payroll system if the business has employees. You must also register for VAT if the annual turnover exceeds £85,000 or is expected to do so within 30 days.

  • Preparing and filing annual accounts and tax returns for the business, as well as personal tax returns for you and any partners or directors. We can also advise on how to minimise the tax liability and claim any reliefs or allowances available.

  • Keeping accurate and up-to-date records of all the income and expenses of the business, as well as any assets and liabilities.

  • Dealing with any queries or investigations from HMRC, such as audits, enquiries, penalties, or disputes - Frampton & Co can act also as a representative and negotiate on your behalf if needed.
