What is different about using an accountant in Wales?
Welsh rates of Income Tax
The Welsh Government sets the Welsh rates of Income Tax, which HMRC collects. The rates currently match England’s, but they can diverge in future budgets, so your accountant should check your address and residence status each year.
Land Transaction Tax
Land Transaction Tax replaces Stamp Duty Land Tax in Wales and is administered by the Welsh Revenue Authority, with its own rates and higher rates for additional properties. Landlords and anyone buying business premises should confirm a firm handles LTT returns.
Services in Welsh
If you want to deal with your accountant in Welsh, ask at the first meeting. Some firms offer Welsh-language services, and GOV.UK and the Welsh Revenue Authority publish their guidance in Welsh.
