We keep your company's books, prepare and file every tax return it owes, and track each deadline for you so nothing slips through.
In most countries a late corporate return or annual account carries a fixed penalty that starts around 100–250 EUR and grows for every month it stays unfiled — usually more than the filing itself would have cost. A missed US BOI report can run into hundreds of dollars a day, and in several jurisdictions the directors become personally liable once a company is struck off. Staying current is cheaper, and far calmer, than catching up.
What's included
One subscription covers the recurring work your company needs to stay compliant, wherever it is registered:
- Monthly or quarterly bookkeeping — every invoice, expense and bank line reconciled
- Annual accounts and the corporate income tax return, prepared and filed
- VAT or sales-tax registration, plus the periodic returns wherever you are liable
- US BOI (beneficial ownership) reporting to FinCEN, updated whenever owners change
- Payroll and contractor filings once you start paying people
- Confirmation statement / annual return and registered-filings upkeep
- A deadline calendar tracked for you, with reminders before every due date
- A named accountant who knows your file and answers in plain language
How it works
Onboarding
We collect your incorporation documents, opening balances and read-only access to your bank feed, then map out every filing your company owes and when.
Ongoing bookkeeping
You forward invoices, receipts and statements as they arrive; we record and reconcile them each period and flag anything that looks off before it becomes a problem.
Review and filing
Before each deadline we prepare the return, send it to you with a plain-language summary to approve, and file it with the authorities on time.
Year end
We close the year with your annual accounts and corporate tax return, and hand you a short report of what was filed, what you owe and what comes next.
Who it's for
- E-commerce sellers running a store across borders who need VAT handled correctly in every market.
- Freelancers and developers billing international clients who want the company admin off their plate.
- Digital and marketing agencies with recurring invoices and a small team to keep on the books.
- Exporting SMEs that have to file in more than one country and can't afford a missed deadline.
- Founders who set up abroad and simply don't want to learn a foreign tax system.
Why Yorkmark
Doing this yourself in a country whose rules and language you don't know is exactly where the fines start — a form filed in the wrong place, a VAT threshold crossed without noticing, a deadline that landed on a local holiday. We run accounting for companies in all 11 jurisdictions we support, so the same team that formed your company keeps it compliant — at a fixed price you know in advance, not an hourly bill that surprises you.
Frequently asked questions
When do I need to start accounting after forming the company?
From the moment the company exists — it has filing obligations even before it earns anything. Most companies have a first annual account and tax return due within twelve months, and VAT duties begin as soon as you register. We set your calendar up at formation so the first deadline is never a surprise.
Which taxes will my company owe?
It depends on the country and what you do — typically corporate income tax on profit, VAT or sales tax on what you sell, and annual accounts filed with the registry. We map out exactly what applies to your company before you commit, so there are no unknowns later.
Do you handle VAT registration and returns?
Yes, where it applies. We register you for VAT or sales tax when you cross the threshold — or from day one if you prefer — then file the periodic returns, including cross-border schemes like EU OSS for online sellers.
Do I still need an accountant in my own country?
Possibly. We handle the company's obligations in the country where it is registered. If you are personally tax-resident somewhere else, the income you draw from the company may also be taxable there — we will tell you clearly where the line falls, but we don't file your personal return.
Can I switch to you mid-year?
Yes. We take over from your previous bookkeeper using the trial balance, reconcile up to the handover point and continue without a gap in your records.
What happens if I've already missed a deadline?
Tell us. Late filings can almost always be brought current, sometimes with a penalty — we quote the catch-up work before we start it. Regularising it now is cheaper than letting it compound month after month.
What is US BOI reporting and do I need it?
If your company is a US LLC or corporation, FinCEN requires a beneficial-ownership (BOI) report identifying its real owners, with updates within 30 days of any change. We file the initial report and keep it current — missing it can carry heavy daily penalties.
How much does accounting cost?
Monthly accounting is a separate subscription priced by country and by your volume of transactions, not by the hour. Once your company is set up we quote a fixed monthly figure for your business, so you know the cost up front.
