Year-end accounts and the contact with auditors

This accounting practice in Stockholm describes itself as authorised by SRF, the Swedish body for accounting consultants, and says its offering combines modern digital working with personal advice. Its site also names an office in Uppsala. It calls itself Sweden's most secure accounting firm, which is its own claim, and invites prospective clients to book a coffee meeting at the office to get to know the team.

Every company has to produce year-end accounts, and limited companies and economic associations must also send an annual report to Bolagsverket, the Swedish companies registration office. For companies that still have an auditor, an audit report goes in with it. The firm says it prepares the year-end material according to the rules and norms, handles all contact with the auditors, files the income tax return with the tax agency and helps with the K10 form for owner-managers.

VAT, employer and income tax returns

Returns and reports bring questions about input and output VAT, and about why preliminary tax changes when the final tax is settled. The practice says it has handled such questions for years for clients from sole traders to larger limited companies. The client hands over the underlying documents and the firm takes care of VAT returns, employer returns and income tax returns, so that they are filed correctly and on time, avoiding late fees and tax surcharges.

Payroll and bookkeeping

Payroll administration involves a mass of rules in every sector. Besides bookkeeping and accounting, the firm calculates pay, reports to the authorities and handles related returns.

Services beyond the books

Its service list also shows staffing, starting a business, business development, financial advice, company valuation and mergers, controller services and digitalisation. These sit around the core accounting work and are aimed at owners who want an adviser rather than only a bookkeeper.

News for business owners

The site keeps a section where it explains changes in laws and rules in plain terms, with important tax and VAT dates and updates from the firm, so an owner can stay informed without needing to be a finance specialist.
