Tax Planning Devon
Your Devon tax bill, planned in advance.
Most Devon business owners find out what they owe in tax around the same time HMRC sends the reminder. That is not planning — that is reacting. A proactive accountant looks at your position throughout the year and identifies what can be done before the year-end window closes. Fixed monthly fee, ICAEW chartered, same-day replies.
- Tax position visible throughout the year, not just at year-end
- Allowances and reliefs identified before the deadline passes
- Corporation tax or self assessment filed accurately and on time
- A named chartered accountant who replies the day you ask
No long-term contract. If it is not working after three months, you leave with clean books and nothing owed.

Sound familiar?
Still not sure what your tax bill will be this year?
Most small business owners in Devon only find out their tax position when the accountant calls with the number. By then the year has closed, the allowances have passed and the options have narrowed. It is not unusual — but it is avoidable. The earlier you have visibility on where you stand, the more can actually be done about it.
- No real visibility on tax position until the bill lands
- Allowances and reliefs missed because year-end came too quickly
- Accountant who files the return but offers no proactive advice
What planned looks like
Your tax position monitored throughout the year, not assembled at the end of it. Allowances reviewed before the window closes, not after. An accountant you can ask questions between filing dates without a clock running.
- Tax position reviewed regularly — no surprises when the year closes
- Reliefs and allowances identified while there is still time to act
- Proactive advice included as standard, not billed as an extra
- One fixed monthly cost that covers your questions, not just your filing
What Devon business owners say
Two clients who came to us wanting more than a filing service. Both now know their tax position well before the end of the year.
Having only recently switched my business to Swift from another accountant, I have found them efficient, friendly and professional, and they’re already saving me money! Would recommend. Nic Paton, Cormorant Media
Kieran was really helpful and very knowledgeable with my circumstance, he gave me great advice and was very efficient with getting my tax’s submitted, really glad I found Swift and will definitely be using for future accounting.
What your monthly fee covers
Three things that keep your tax position visible, your filings on time and your affairs in order — for one fixed monthly cost agreed before we start.
Year-Round Tax Planning
Your tax liability is reviewed throughout the year so you are not seeing it for the first time when the return is due. Allowances, reliefs and timing decisions are identified while there is still something to be done with them. No end-of-year scramble, no missed windows.
Proactive, not reactiveCorporation Tax and Self Assessment
Your return is prepared accurately and filed on time, with every allowable deduction properly claimed. You will know the figure well in advance, not the week it is due. HMRC submissions handled as a matter of course.
Filed on time, no extrasBookkeeping and VAT Compliance
Clean, current records are the foundation of any useful tax planning. Monthly bookkeeping on Xero keeps your numbers accurate throughout the year. Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed — Making Tax Digital compliant as standard.
Included in fixed feeDevon businesses that planned ahead
Sole traders, limited companies and growing businesses across Devon. Most arrive having filed without planning. Most leave with considerably more visibility than before.
On the Ball, Competitive Rates, Stress Removed
“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.”
Two Years In, Still Highly Recommending
“I’ve been using Swift Accounting for two years now after my previous accountant retired and recommended Kieran. Excellent and prompt service, great communications and above all really helpful. Highly recommend.”
Went Above and Beyond on Saturday Night
“Being a self employed stone mason sadly paper work is not my strong suit. And after a late cancellation from my normal accountant I had to find help. With late notice I contacted swift accounting and book keeping. Kieran was the person assigned to me to help with my tax return and at the start of Jan not much time to file my return before potential fines incurred. He went above an beyond to help good communication through emails an working even on a Saturday night to complete my return. I cannot thank him enough he made the process super easy an relaxed I will 100% be using them again in the future. Thank you.”
Why Devon businesses choose Swift
There is no shortage of accountants in Devon. Here is what is different about working with one who gives you the position before you ask for it.
You know the number before the deadline
Most accountants produce your tax return after the year has closed. By then your options are limited. With current books and regular reviews, your liability is visible months in advance — long enough to make decisions, not just arrangements to pay.
Questions answered the day you ask
If you want to know whether a capital purchase is deductible, whether a payment to a subcontractor needs anything reporting, or what your next tax instalment looks like — you will have an answer before the end of the day. Not logged, not queued, not passed to a junior.
One fixed monthly fee
Your monthly cost is agreed before anything starts and does not move. No hourly billing, no invoice that arrives larger than expected when you have asked too many questions. Tax planning requires a back-and-forth — that works better when the clock is not running.
Up and running in four steps
From initial enquiry to everything being handled takes four steps. No complicated onboarding, no forms that need a lawyer to understand.
Send your enquiry
Fill in the form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry personally and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages, no waiting to be assigned to someone.
A short discovery call
Twenty minutes to understand your current position, what software you are using and what needs sorting. By the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered, what it costs and what happens next.
We handle the setup
Your accounting software is connected, your records are brought up to date and your tax position is assessed from the start. You confirm you want to proceed and we handle the rest.
Ongoing — nothing falls through
Monthly bookkeeping, quarterly VAT, annual return and year-round tax planning — handled as a matter of course. You will know your tax liability well before it becomes urgent. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.
“Kieran came recommended to us and for good reason. He was fast, professional and very patient when answering our long list of questions.”
