Dropshipping Accountant Cornwall

Your dropshipping accounts, sorted.

Dropshipping looks simple until supplier invoices, platform fees and cross-border VAT start piling up faster than the margin justifies. The books become a project in themselves. Fixed monthly fee, ICAEW chartered, same-day replies — and fully cloud-based, so Cornwall is not a limitation.

  • Clean, reconciled books every month — no year-end scramble through old orders
  • VAT on cross-border sales handled correctly — no threshold surprises
  • Know your actual margin after all costs, not just your revenue
  • An accountant who already knows how dropshipping cash flow and supplier costs work

No long-term contract. If it is not working after three months, you leave with clean books and nothing owed.

Sound familiar?

Do you actually know what your dropshipping margin is?

Once you account for supplier costs, platform fees, shipping, returns and the occasional VAT complication, what looked like a healthy revenue figure gets considerably murkier. Most dropshipping sellers in Cornwall have a rough idea of profit but no precise picture — and the books are usually several months behind. It is all fixable. It just takes longer the more you leave it.

  • No clear profit figure once supplier costs, fees and returns are reconciled
  • VAT obligations on cross-border sales that are easy to miss until HMRC notices first
  • Bookkeeping months behind, with a tax return due and no tidy records to start from

What sorted looks like

Monthly books that reflect actual margin, not just turnover. VAT thresholds monitored so you are not caught out by a registration obligation you were not expecting. A tax return prepared from clean records, not a scramble through twelve months of bank statements.

  • Books reconciled monthly — real margin visible, not just revenue
  • VAT threshold monitored — you will not wake up to an unexpected registration obligation
  • Tax return prepared from clean records — no year-end archaeology
  • A fixed monthly cost that does not move regardless of how many questions you ask

Kieran at Swift is super! He helped and bailed me out of the last minute panic of tax and Companies House returns. He’s on the ball, quick at responding, patient with me and got the job done stress free, plus his rates are very competitive.

What you get

What your monthly fee covers

Three things that keep your books accurate, your tax visible and your VAT compliant — for one fixed monthly fee, with no hidden extras.

01

Bookkeeping and Cost Reconciliation

Every supplier invoice, platform fee, refund and payout reconciled monthly against your bank account. Your actual margin is visible throughout the year — not just at the point when you absolutely need to know it.

Included as standard
02

VAT Returns and MTD Compliance

Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed with HMRC, Making Tax Digital compliant as standard. Your VAT threshold is monitored so you are not caught out by a registration obligation you were not expecting — including on cross-border sales where the rules are less obvious.

Quarterly, fixed fee
03

Corporation Tax and Annual Accounts

Year-end accounts, CT600 and Companies House confirmation statement all handled in one fixed fee. Because your books are current throughout the year, your tax bill is not a surprise — it is a number you have been able to see coming for months.

No extras, no surprises

Why Swift

Why dropshipping sellers choose Swift

There is no shortage of accountants. Here is what is different about working with one who already understands how dropshipping cash flow, supplier costs and platform fees actually work.

🛍️

No explaining how dropshipping works

Supplier invoices, platform fees, settlement timing, returns that hit the books in a different month to the sale — you will not need to spend ten minutes explaining your business model before getting a useful answer. We work with eCommerce sellers regularly. Ask a question, get an answer that makes sense for your setup.

💬

Replies the same day

Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not queued, not passed to a junior. If you want to know whether a particular cost is deductible or how to handle a supplier credit note, you will know before the end of the day. Every review we have says the same thing — Kieran responds.

🔒

One price, clearly agreed

Your monthly fee is fixed and does not move. No hourly billing, no invoice that arrives larger than expected, no charge for asking a question. Your accounting costs are as predictable as your other fixed overheads — which, for a dropshipping business watching margins carefully, is rather the point.

Getting started

Up and running in four steps

From first enquiry to everything being handled takes about ten minutes of your time. No complicated onboarding, no forms that require a specialist to interpret.

1

Send your enquiry

Fill in the form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages, no waiting to be allocated.

2

A short discovery call

Twenty minutes to understand your business, your current platform setup and what needs sorting. By the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered, what it costs and what happens next.

3

We handle the setup

Your accounting software is connected, your records are brought up to date and everything is configured for your dropshipping operation. You confirm you want to proceed — that is largely the extent of your involvement at this stage.

4

Ongoing — nothing falls through

Monthly bookkeeping, quarterly VAT, annual accounts and corporation tax — handled as a matter of course. Your margin is visible throughout the year, your tax bill is not a surprise, and HMRC correspondence lands with us rather than in your inbox. You focus on the business.

Questions

Questions Cornwall dropshipping sellers ask first

Yes — you will not need to explain the business model before getting a useful answer. Supplier invoices hitting a different period to the sale, platform settlement timing, returns that distort your revenue figures — these are not unusual complications for us. They are part of how the books are kept for this type of business.
Once your books are current and updated monthly, your tax liability becomes visible throughout the year rather than appearing at the end of it as a surprise. Most clients have a reasonable working figure three to four months before the bill is due — long enough to plan, not just react.
It is why most people come to us. Catching up takes a little longer at the start and may cost slightly more — we will tell you that upfront before agreeing anything. Once current, keeping it current is straightforward. The situation is fixable; it just takes marginally longer the more you leave it.
No. Month-to-month, with a month’s notice to cancel. We would rather keep clients because the service is worth it than because the contract makes leaving inconvenient.
