    Choose the right Central London accounting guide

    Central London is not one uniform business market. Start with the guide closest to your district and circumstances, then use the service pages for the work you need.

    What to bring to your first accounting review

    A useful first review is based on facts, not a generic sales call. If available, bring the following so we can identify priorities, missing records and upcoming deadlines:

    • Latest filed accounts and tax returns
    • Companies House and HMRC reference numbers
    • Current bookkeeping or cloud software access
    • Recent bank, loan and credit-card statements
    • VAT returns and VAT scheme details
    • Payroll reports and pension information
    • HMRC letters and response deadlines
    • A list of directors, employees and business activities

    Do not delay making contact if some records are missing. Identifying gaps early is part of deciding the correct next step.

    A joined-up deadline plan for Central London businesses

    Limited company accounting is a connected cycle rather than a once-a-year filing. Bookkeeping supports VAT and management information; payroll feeds staff and director records; year-end accounts support the Corporation Tax return; and the director's salary and dividends may flow into Self Assessment.

    At onboarding, VMK identifies the statutory deadlines relevant to the engagement, agrees who supplies each record, and confirms how approvals will be collected. This creates a practical calendar for Companies House, HMRC, VAT and PAYE work without implying that every client needs every service.

    Example Central London client situations

    Anonymised examples of the kind of work we typically handle for Central London clients:

    • A City of London limited company needing year-end accounts, CT600 corporation tax and quarterly VAT support.

    Seven specialist MTD guides

    Making Tax Digital accountant in Central London

    VMK supports landlords, sole traders and VAT-registered businesses in Central Londonwith Making Tax Digital. We check whether and when MTD applies, set up compatible software, organise digital records and support quarterly updates and the final tax return. Landlords receive property-specific help for rental income, joint ownership, portfolios and foreign property.

    Current MTD for Income Tax rules

    MTD for Income Tax applies in phases to eligible sole traders and landlords with qualifying gross self-employment and property income over £50,000 from 6 April 2026, over £30,000 from 6 April 2027, and over £20,000 from 6 April 2028. We check the relevant tax return, combined qualifying income and any exemption before recommending software or registration.

    Check GOV.UK guidance

    Confidential HMRC disclosure support

    Undeclared rental and India income help for Central London

    VMK supports Central London clients who have discovered missing income or received an HMRC letter. We establish the relevant years, income sources, ownership and filing history before calculating a defensible UK tax position and selecting the appropriate response or disclosure route.

    Landlord disclosure

    HMRC letter about undeclared rental income

    Help for landlords with two, five, ten or more potentially undeclared years, whether the property is in the UK or overseas. The correct route depends on the complete HMRC letter, whether returns were filed, when letting began and why the income was omitted.

    • Review the letter, response date, ownership and tax-return history.
    • Reconstruct rent and allowable costs from bank, agent, mortgage and property records.
    • Prepare the appropriate returns, amendments or Let Property Campaign disclosure.

    India and overseas disclosure

    HMRC letter about income or assets in India

    UK-side support where Indian income was omitted, including fixed-deposit interest, NRO, NRE or FCNR accounts, Indian property rent, dividends, investments, pensions and capital gains. Holding an account is not itself the tax calculation; residence, source, remittance rules and each tax year must be reviewed.

    • Review HMRC correspondence and UK residence for each affected year.
    • Reconcile Indian bank statements, FD certificates, TDS, Form 26AS or AIS and property records.
    • Calculate sterling figures, consider treaty relief and prepare the correct UK return or Worldwide Disclosure Facility submission.
    Before responding: keep the complete HMRC letter and envelope, avoid guessing figures, and gather the records you already have. VMK advises on the UK tax and disclosure position; Indian tax returns or legal work may require an appropriately qualified adviser in India.

    Can you help contractors with IR35 and Self Assessment?+
