Can anyone recommend an accountant near Chelmsford who can deal with international tax and payments coming from Canada and the US?

It's for my step dad.

I'm just trying to help out by getting a reputable accountant.

Think it's a limited company (UK based a liable for UK tax) that will be receiving the money.

What is the nature of this income?

Is he running a business that has overseas customers?

Is the income of an investment rather than a trading nature?

The money will be coming from overseas customers, paying him for work he's doing in the US and Canada.

Will be money from trading rather than investment.

That is relatively straightforward then. There would be relatively few "special issues" arising and in most circumstances the business would be treated virtually the same as a business that only had UK customers.

Any competent accountant should be able to handle a business like that.

Thanks.

I'm not local to Chelmsford, so if anyone can give a recommendation for a good one, that would be fantastic.

Our business is in Chelmsford, but we deal with the US, Singapore, Australia, Norway, Canada, Hong Kong (China) - you get the idea.

We use Meyer Williams in Hertford, very good service.

I expect you're worried about dual taxation? W8BEN and all that?
