How to Switch Accountants with Taxperts

How to Switch Accountants with Taxperts

Switching accountants may seem daunting, but with Taxperts, the process is simple, seamless, and stress-free. We handle everything for you, ensuring a smooth transition without any disruption to your business.

Step 1: Get in Touch

Contact us to discuss your needs and the services you're looking for. We'll provide a free consultation to understand your business and how we can best support you. This is also a great opportunity to ask any questions you might have about the switch.

Step 2: Inform Your Current Accountant

Once you decide to switch, you'll need to inform your current accountant. Simply let them know that you've chosen to move to Taxperts. You can do this via email, phone, or letter. If you’d like, we can even provide you with a template to make this step easier.

Step 3: Authorize Taxperts to Act on Your Behalf

We’ll need your authorization to act as your accountant with HMRC and other relevant authorities. This typically involves completing a 64-8 form, which allows us to manage your tax affairs. Don’t worry—this is straightforward, and we’ll guide you through it.

Step 4: Transfer Your Records

We’ll work directly with your previous accountant to obtain all necessary records, financial statements, and any other relevant documents. This includes:

  • Accounts and Tax Returns: All past accounts, tax returns, and related documents.
  • Payroll Information: If applicable, we’ll gather your payroll details to ensure continuity.
  • VAT Records: If your business is VAT-registered, we’ll ensure all records are transferred smoothly.
  • Bookkeeping Data: We’ll securely transfer your bookkeeping data, whether it’s in software like Xero, QuickBooks, or Sage, or in another format.

Step 5: Set Up and Review

Once we have your records, we’ll set everything up in our systems and review your financial situation. If you’re using accounting software like Xero, QuickBooks, or Sage, we’ll ensure everything is properly integrated and up to date. If you’re interested in exploring funding options, we can also set up Swoop Advisor to provide tailored financial insights and opportunities.
