Understand Your Allowable Expenses

Many small business owners miss out on tax savings by not claiming all allowable expenses. From office supplies to mileage for business travel, make sure you’re not leaving money on the table.

Plan for VAT Registration

If your turnover exceeds the VAT threshold, you’re legally required to register. Even if you’re below the threshold, voluntary registration might benefit your business. Assess your situation carefully.

Set Aside Money for Tax

Tax is an inevitability so don’t wait until the tax deadline to think about payments. Set aside a portion of your income for tax purposes to avoid nasty surprises.

Seek Professional Help

Tax laws change regularly, and it can be tricky to keep up. A professional accountant can save you time, money, and stress while ensuring compliance.
