Compliance services are those services that are largely required by law. As tax regulations and legislation are ever-changing, it is crucial you have the support and resources on hand to stay compliant and minimise the risk of receiving a penalty for mistakes or late filing. At Maple Accountancy, we offer a range of flexible accounting and tax services to ensure you remain compliant. Wherever possible, we do try to add value to these services to make them a bit more interesting so that you benefit from the fees you pay rather than being money just lost on red tape compliance.
Our compliance services give you peace of mind and free up more of your valuable time to focus on what you do best – growing your business. We ensure all your statutory deadlines are met and can prepare and submit all tax returns and forms on your behalf. We also assess and suggest improvements you can make to your compliance systems and our tax advisors can offer advice to ensure you are not paying any more tax than you have to.
Every registered company must submit an annual return to Companies House every year. Maple Accountancy can do this for you, gathering and providing all the relevant information and submitting your return on your behalf each year, saving you the hassle.
We can help you complete self-assessments whether you’re a Limited Company, Sole Trader, Partner in a Partnership or have rental income. Self-assessments can take a lot of time and cause unnecessary stress, but our team of tax experts can help with everything from preparation to filing, so you won’t have to worry about the ever-changing tax rules or making costly mistakes.
We can perform a range of essential accounting services to keep you compliant, including preparing your end-of-year accounts and filing your end-of-year tax returns. Outsourcing your end-of-year accounts to us can free up valuable time for you to concentrate on managing and growing your business.
When you run a business with another partner as a business partnership you must complete a partnership tax return to account for the income of the partnership and how this is distributed to each partner. Maple Accountancy’s tax advisors can help you prepare and file your SA800 partnership tax return to HMRC to ensure you remain compliant and avoid making costly mistakes.
All active UK limited companies must file corporation tax returns, typically every year. Our tax experts can deal with the complexities of preparing accounts and filing the company tax return, and also make sure you are benefiting from corporation tax allowances and reliefs where possible to minimise your total corporation tax liability.

We can help you complete and send your quarterly EC sales list to HMRC when sales are made to an EU country during that calendar quarter.
If your VAT-registered business trades goods with EU member states worth over a certain amount, you must register for Intrastat. Maple Accountancy can advise you if your business needs to register for Intrastat, help you register, and make monthly Intrastat declarations on your behalf.
A person with significant control is someone who owns or controls your company, and this person or person’s details must be recorded on your company’s PSC register and sent to Companies House. We can help you identify your company’s PSC(s), gather their information, record their details in your PSC register, and update the information if any changes occur.
Every company, even those that aren’t trading, must file a confirmation statement to Companies House. At Maple, we can take care of this for you, filing your confirmation statement annually on your behalf to ensure your information is always kept up to date.
We provide a wide range of company secretarial services to offer solutions for your specific business needs and to help you meet your requirements at Companies House. We can provide peace of mind, by taking the hard work off your hands.
Administering the payroll can be a time-consuming task as a business owner but we can help you relieve the administrative burden by handling your payroll for you to ensure your staff are always paid correctly and on time and that you always comply with HMRC regulations and deadlines.
Auto-enrolment is a government initiative to help more people save for later life. It makes it compulsory for employers to offer eligible workers a workplace pension and enrol every eligible worker into the scheme. The employer must also make a minimum contribution to the scheme. You also receive tax relief on your contributions. Maple Accountancy can provide expert advice on auto-enrolment schemes and what the best options are for you and your business.
Having a UK registered office for a UK limited company is a legal requirement, and this address is publicly available. It will be used by Companies House, HMRC, and other government bodies as the address where they post statutory letters and legal notices. Maple Accountancy can be listed as your registered address to ensure your privacy, and we can manage all routine correspondence that comes in for your Ltd company. We can take care of processing and filing all the information from HMRC, saving you the trouble of having to post it manually, and ensure all payments are made on time.
From 1 April 2019, the way in which you submit your VAT return and retain your records changed significantly. Our Making Tax Digital experts ensure your business is compliant with the new requirements to avoid penalties.
