Self Assessment is how HMRC collects tax that isn't taken at source — and if you're a company director, sole trader, landlord or higher earner, you probably need to file one. We prepare and submit your return, claim every allowance, and — for sole traders and landlords now moving to Making Tax Digital for Income Tax — handle the new quarterly filings too. No jargon, no last-minute January panic.

Cash FlowWe register you if needed, gather everything in good time and file before 31 January, keeping you clear of HMRC's escalating late-filing penalties.
Peace of MindYour Lumi packages cover your company — but as a director you'll usually need a personal Self Assessment return too. We prepare returns from £300 + VAT each — as a simple add-on to any package, or as a standalone service if you're a sole trader or landlord.
All packages include a Xero subscription (our recommended software). View full package details →
