A colleague in the same office covers holidays and sickness.Your own accountantGetting set upFennoa credentials, and how material reaches us. If you are switching firms we request the material from your previous accountant and verify the opening balances. That is where a switch usually goes wrong.Before we startEach monthYou send receipts and purchase invoices; we do the bookkeeping, the VAT return and a monthly report. Payroll material is needed well before the payment date.By the tenthEach yearThe financial statements and the tax return at a fixed annual fee, and, for associations, the material organised for the activity or statutory audit.Fixed annual fee
What we need from you
Three things, and all of them are within your control.
- Material on time. The tenth for bookkeeping, five working days before payday for payroll.
- Notes on receipts. Briefly, how the cost relates to the business. Your accountant cannot guess it, and in a few months you will not remember it either.
- Changes in advance. A new employee, a new tax card, a new account number, a changed insurer. Information given in advance is always faster and cheaper than a correction made afterwards.

Frequently asked
- How does working together start?
- With a free conversation of around 30 minutes covering document volumes, people on the payroll and the services you need. After that you get a quote. We don't charge for preparing a quote and the conversation commits you to nothing.
- How quickly can we get started?
- Once the agreement is signed we open your Fennoa credentials and agree how material will reach us. If you are switching firms, we request the bookkeeping material from your previous accountant and verify the opening balances before the first month.
- Do I change accountant if mine is on holiday?
- The accountant named for you is the one who knows your business. A colleague in the same office covers holidays and sickness, and because the material is in Fennoa rather than in one person's inbox, nothing depends on who happens to be in.
- What do you need from me each month?
- Receipts and purchase invoices by the tenth of the following month, and payroll material at least five working days before the payment date. The detailed instructions and deadlines are on the FAQ page.
