What The Frenches gets with Bohzo Accountants
Quote first, work second: one written price that can't drift, however many questions you ask along the way.
Self Assessment, VAT quarters, accounts, confirmation statements — each deadline is tracked and chased by us, well before it's close.
We're Bohzo Ltd (Company No. 15031604) — a registered UK company you can look up, not an anonymous website.
Secure portal and WhatsApp — no office visits, no printing, no waiting rooms.
Online accountants vs the high street
Traditional firms around South East still run on hourly billing, office appointments and fees you discover after the work. Our model inverts that: the fee is fixed and written down before work begins, questions are part of the service rather than billable events, and everything happens online — the reason The Frenches pays the same as everywhere else.
There's no office to fund in The Frenches and no office to visit: records travel through our secure portal or WhatsApp, approvals happen on your phone, and filings go to HMRC and Companies House electronically. You get the same qualified work — minus the overheads, the travel and the surprises on the invoice.

Accountants in The Frenches: FAQs
Do you have an office in The Frenches?
No — and that's deliberate. We're online accountants serving The Frenches and the whole UK: records travel through our secure portal or WhatsApp, filings go to HMRC electronically, and the savings on premises show up in our fixed fees.
Which accounting services are available in The Frenches?
All our core services are available in The Frenches: Self Assessment, limited company accounts, bookkeeping, VAT, payroll, corporation tax, sole trader accounts and company formation — each at a fixed fee. Specialist services are available on request.
I searched "accountant near me" — do you actually cover The Frenches?
Yes — The Frenches is fully covered. We're online accountants, so "near" works differently: no office to drive to, but same-day responses, filings handled for The Frenches businesses every week, and local detail like South East deadlines and postcodes built into how we work. For most people that beats an office across town they'd visit once a year.
How quickly can you start?
Usually the same week. Message us on WhatsApp, get your fixed quote in writing, complete online onboarding (including the identity checks UK accountants must run), and send your records — most engagements start within days.
How do your fixed fees work?
Every job is quoted as one fixed price in writing before work starts, and that price never changes mid-job. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices — if something extra comes up, it gets its own quote first.
The short version of the rules that matter
Status under IR35 turns on the reality of the engagement: control, substitution, mutuality of obligation. Contracts matter, but working practices matter more. A written status assessment for each engagement is cheap insurance.
Most HMRC letters are routine — a statement, a code change, a reminder. The rule is simple: never ignore one, and never panic over one. Forwarded to your accountant the day it arrives, almost every letter is a five-minute job.
The £90,000 VAT threshold is measured over any 12-month rolling window, so a strong few months can tip you over mid-year. There's a 30-day window to register once you cross it; miss that and HMRC can backdate the liability to when you should have registered.
Filing early doesn't mean paying early: submit a return in May and the tax is still not due until the usual dates. Early filing buys certainty, refund speed and time to arrange payment — it costs nothing.
The capital gains annual exempt amount has shrunk to £3,000, which pulls far more ordinary disposals — shares, crypto, second properties — into reporting territory. Gains that once fell under the allowance now need a return, even when the tax due is modest.
The best salary-dividend mix moves with each year's thresholds and your other income. Setting it once in April — rather than guessing through the year — is one of the simplest pieces of planning a director can do.
First-year traders around The Frenches tend to make the same three mistakes: registering late, mixing business and personal spending in one account, and saving nothing for the first tax bill. All three are avoidable in an afternoon of setup.
Every year a wave of returns gets filed in the final days of January. It works, but it's the most expensive way to do it: no time to check for missed reliefs, and any tax due lands as one surprise. Sending your records early — even unsorted — is the single best gift you can give your January self.
General guidance, not personal advice — thresholds and dates change. For advice on your own position in The Frenches, message us and we'll answer against your actual numbers.
