Online accountants vs the high street
A high-street accountant in South East typically bills by the hour, meets by appointment and prices each extra question. 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 Dover pays the same as everywhere else.
There's no office to fund in Dover 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.
Small Business Accountants in Dover: from first message to filed
WhatsApp or the enquiry form — describe what you need and roughly what your records look like. Two minutes.
You get one written fixed price before anything begins — and if your case is unusual, we price that honestly up front.
Onboarding is a phone job: verify identity, sign the engagement letter, upload records. Nothing needs you to leave Dover.
You review everything first. Then it goes to HMRC electronically and you get confirmation immediately.
The same service in Dover as anywhere — by design
We built this service so that someone in Dover never pays a premium — or accepts worse service — because of geography. Same specialists, same published fees, same speed, wherever in South East you are.
Smaller towns like Dover are exactly why we work online: the nearest high-street firm may be a drive away, keep office hours, and price like scarcity. Your accountant should be as close as your phone — and priced like competition exists.

Dover small business accountants FAQs
What's included in the monthly fee?
Everything listed in your package, with no metering: accounts, tax, bookkeeping, and VAT/payroll on the larger plans. Questions and calls are included too — we'd rather hear about a decision before you make it than fix it after.
We already have an accountant — is switching painful?
No. You tell them you're moving; we handle professional clearance and record transfer. Most switches complete inside two weeks, and the health-check fee is refunded when you join.
Can you grow with us if we take on staff or pass the VAT threshold?
That's the design: plans step up as you add payroll, VAT or management reporting, with each change priced before it happens. You'll never discover a fee change on an invoice.
Do I need to visit an office in Dover?
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 Dover or anywhere else in South East.
I searched "small business accounting near me" — is this service really local to Dover?
Dover 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 Dover town centre or the edge of South East. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my small business 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 notes our Dover clients ask about most
Rental profits need reporting once they're more than trivial, and the rules differ for furnished holiday lets, rent-a-room and ordinary lets. Landlords are also in the first wave of Making Tax Digital — property income counts towards the £50,000 threshold.
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.
Company deadlines run off your accounting year end, not the tax year: corporation tax is payable nine months and one day after year end, and the CT600 return is due twelve months after. Confusingly, the payment is due before the return — a sequencing quirk that catches new directors.
Online Self Assessment returns are due by 31 January, along with any balancing payment — and HMRC's £100 penalty applies the moment the deadline passes, even if you owe nothing. Most Dover clients who come to us in January still file on time; the records just need to arrive before the last week.
The businesses that struggle with tax bills rarely have a tax problem; they have a timing problem. Knowing the bill in September instead of January — which filing early gives you for free — is the difference between planning and scrambling.
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.
The first tax bill is the hardest because it can arrive with payments on account attached — up to 150% of the year's tax in one go. New businesses that save a quarter to a third of profits from day one never feel it.
General guidance, not personal advice — thresholds and dates change. For advice on your own position in Dover, message us and we'll answer against your actual numbers.
