VAT Return Preparation Plus

We prepare accurate, on-time VAT returns using your systems and templates. Our team reconciles data, checks for errors, and ensures everything is aligned with HMRC guidelines before submission.

Accounts Review and Adjustments Plus

Our team checks trial balances and supporting schedules to identify any inconsistencies. We apply standard year-end adjustments, prepare lead schedules, and highlight anything unusual. You get clear summaries with proposed entries, helping you finalise accounts efficiently, accurately, and without having to do the legwork yourself.

Companies House Submission Support Plus

Once accounts are finalised, we can help you prepare for submission. We make sure formats meet Companies House standards, assist with tagging, and double-check details to avoid last-minute errors. You submit everything under your name and login, while we take care of the admin work in the background.

Corporation Tax Support Plus

If you’re handling CT600s in-house, we provide all the figures and supporting documentation you need to prepare the return. If not, we can help prepare and format tax computations for submission. Our process ensures consistency between accounts and tax, making finalisation faster and cleaner.

What outsourced VAT returns actually look like inside a UK firm

Here’s how a fast-growing practice stayed compliant and scaled smoothly — without adding overhead.
The Challenge

Frequent VAT deadlines were overwhelming the team. Too many returns to prepare, review, and file — with increasing risk of delays and penalties.

The Solution

Eccoux took over the full VAT process: preparing, reviewing, and filing VAT returns directly with HMRC, all branded to the firm.

The Result

Deadlines met with confidence, penalties avoided, and the internal team freed up to focus on client relationships and advisory work.
