Sound familiar?

Year-end approaching with records that need work?

Annual accounts catch a lot of businesses out — not because they have been careless, but because the year moves quickly and the bookkeeping falls behind. By the time the deadline is close, the records need more attention than expected, and the tax position is still unclear. It is all manageable — it just takes longer the more you leave it.

  • Records behind and year-end deadline closer than you would like
  • No clear view of your corporation tax liability until it is nearly due
  • Companies House filing dates sitting in the background, easy to miss

What prepared actually looks like

Books brought up to date, accounts filed well before the deadline. Your tax liability visible months in advance, not weeks. Companies House filings handled so they do not fall through the gaps.

  • Records reconciled and accounts prepared without a last-minute scramble
  • Corporation tax calculated and communicated well before payment is due
  • Companies House filings tracked and submitted — nothing missed
  • One fixed monthly cost, agreed upfront, with no invoice surprises

What you get

What your monthly fee covers

Three things that keep your year-end accounts under control, your tax position clear and your statutory obligations met — for one fixed monthly fee.

01

Annual Accounts and Corporation Tax

Your year-end accounts prepared to HMRC and Companies House standard, with the CT600 filed on time. Your corporation tax liability is calculated and communicated well in advance of the payment date — no bill arriving out of nowhere.

Included as standard
02

Companies House Filings

Confirmation statements, director changes, registered office updates — all tracked and filed so nothing slips past the deadline. Companies House compliance is handled as a matter of course, not an afterthought.

Deadlines tracked for you
03

Bookkeeping and Records

Monthly bookkeeping on Xero means your records are current throughout the year, not just at year-end. When the accounts are due, there is no scramble — the numbers are already there.

Clean records all year

Why Swift

Why businesses near Exeter choose Swift

There is no shortage of accountants. Here is what tends to be different about working with one who is ICAEW chartered, cloud-based and actually replies the same day.

📋

Your tax bill, months in advance

Because bookkeeping is kept current throughout the year, your corporation tax liability is visible well before it is due. You are not guessing at year-end — you already know the number. Planning becomes straightforward when the information is there.

💬

Replies the same day

Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not passed along, not left for the following week — answered. If you want to know whether a cost is deductible or when your filing deadline falls, you will know before the end of the day.

🔒

One fixed price, agreed upfront

Your monthly fee is fixed and does not move depending on how many questions you ask or how complex a particular year turns out to be. No hourly billing, no unexpected invoices. Your accounting cost is as predictable as any other overhead.

Getting started

Up and running in four steps

Four steps from enquiry to everything being handled. No complicated onboarding, no paperwork that takes three weeks to complete.

3

We handle the setup

Your accounting software is connected, your records are brought up to date and everything is configured. You do not need to do much except confirm you want to proceed.

4

Ongoing — nothing falls through

Monthly bookkeeping, annual accounts, corporation tax, Companies House — handled as a matter of course. Your tax position is visible throughout the year. Deadlines are tracked so they do not creep up on you.

Questions

Questions Exeter businesses usually ask first

No. Swift is fully cloud-based, which means it does not matter whether you are in Exeter, Braunton, Barnstaple or anywhere else in the UK. Everything is handled remotely via Xero, email and calls. Geography is not a constraint.
Once your books are current, your tax liability becomes visible throughout the year rather than just at year-end. Most clients have a reasonable picture of what they owe three to four months before it is due — long enough to plan rather than just react.
It is why most people come to us. Catching up takes a little more time at the start and may cost slightly more — we will confirm that upfront before anything is agreed. Once current, keeping it current is straightforward.
No. Month-to-month, cancel with a month’s notice. We would rather keep clients because the service is worth it than because leaving is inconvenient.
