South Woodford e-commerce accountants FAQs
Amazon already collects VAT on some of my sales — what's left to do?
Marketplaces collect VAT in specific cases (like overseas sellers' UK sales), but UK-established sellers still account for VAT on most sales, reclaim input VAT, and must report everything correctly. Mixing up 'marketplace-collected' and 'seller-collected' revenue is the most common e-commerce VAT error we fix.
Why don't my bank deposits match my sales?
Because marketplaces deposit net settlements — sales minus fees, refunds, reserves and adjustments, across date boundaries. Proper e-commerce bookkeeping reconciles the settlement reports, not the bank line. That's exactly what we do monthly.
When should an online seller register for VAT?
At £90,000 of rolling 12-month taxable turnover — which growing sellers hit faster than they expect. Register late and the VAT comes out of your margin retrospectively. We monitor turnover monthly so registration happens on time, on purpose.
Do I need to visit an office in South Woodford?
No — there's nothing to visit and nothing to print. We're an online firm: records go through our secure portal or WhatsApp, and everything is filed electronically. It works the same whether you're in South Woodford or anywhere else in North East London.
I searched "e-commerce accounting near me" — is this service really local to South Woodford?
South Woodford is fully covered, yes. The work is done online, which in practice means more local than an office: same-day replies instead of appointment slots, and the same published fixed fee whether you're in South Woodford town centre or the edge of North East London. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my e-commerce accounting?
Bohzo Accountants — a trading name of Bohzo Ltd, a registered UK company (No. 15031604). You get a named contact, a fixed fee in writing, and nothing is filed until you've reviewed and approved it.
How do your fixed fees work?
You tell us your situation, we quote one fixed price in writing before any work starts, and that price never changes mid-job. If your case is unusually complex we'll say so up front and agree a different fixed price — but the fee is always agreed before we begin, never after.
Tax, briefly — the parts that affect South Woodford
The trading allowance means up to £1,000 of gross side income per year can be tax-free with no return needed. Above that, registration and reporting kick in — and platforms now report seller data to HMRC, so "under the radar" isn't a strategy any more.
The tax-free dividend allowance is down to £500, so almost any director taking dividends now pays some dividend tax — and needs a Self Assessment return to report it. The classic small-salary-plus-dividends strategy still works; it just needs actual planning rather than folklore.
Compliance checks are usually specific: one return, one figure, one question. Answered promptly and with evidence, most close quickly. The expensive enquiries are the ones that started as unanswered letters.
The best time to switch is after a filing, but it works at any point in the year. What matters is not letting a looming deadline stop you: a new firm can usually pick up an in-flight year faster than you'd think.
Self Assessment lateness is priced in stages: £100 immediately, daily £10 penalties after three months (up to £900), then percentage-based charges at six and twelve months — all separate from interest on unpaid tax. The curve is designed to reward filing sooner, whatever the state of your records.
Miss 31 January and the £100 fine is automatic; three months later daily penalties start. If you're behind on a return, the maths almost always favours filing quickly over waiting — penalties grow on a timetable, and HMRC charges interest either way.
New companies often have a long first accounting period, which can mean two corporation tax returns for one set of accounts. It's normal, but it's exactly the kind of thing that's cheaper to get right first time than to unpick.
Compare accountants on the things that bite later: is the fee fixed and written down, what exactly is included, who does the work, how fast do they answer in January. Proximity to South Woodford stopped being the differentiator the day filings went electronic.
