For all your HMRC needs!

Albatross Tax is a fully registered agent with HMRC for your tax affairs in the UK!

To become a registered agent in the UK is a fairly lengthy process so we are more than happy to celebrate this milestone!

Now we have passed the Falkland Islands personal tax deadline, it’s time to start thinking about the HMRC deadlines. You may have seen our adverts in Penguin News in the past, you may now have seen our adverts relating to some of the specific services we can offer, like the one above.

Whether you need to operate PAYE for UK based staff, complete your self-assessment tax return or file a CT return, we are here to help. 

Working abroad is often the first time a person needs to consider their tax affairs, I for one had been happily paid via pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) in the UK my entire working life until I worked in the Falkland Islands. Tax returns can be daunting and the penalties for not submitting or getting it wrong can be severe. 

Let Albatross Tax help!

The Advantages of Using Albatross Tax for my UK Tax Affairs

The Deadline is Extended!

If you are going to file yourself then the deadline is 31 October, if you use our service the deadline is extended to 31 January 2024!

If you’ve been a little late in getting your paper return to HMRC or have simply forgotten, our deadline will avoid the initial penalties of late filing.

If you are based in the Falkland Islands you cannot file online via the HMRC website (and get an extended deadline) as you cannot file the necessary additional foreign pages you require online. 

 

We understand the interaction between the UK and Falkland Islands Tax System

Richard, our tax director, spent 14 years working for HMRC as a tax inspector, including four years of intensive training. He understands the UK tax system and having spent over 3 years working for the Falkland Islands Government Tax Office, he understands the system here also. Uniquely, he in an expert on both systems and how they interact with each other. 

Using Albatross Tax is a great way to get your tax affairs right first time, avoiding the pitfalls of tax residency and double taxation. 

If you’re filing tax returns in two countries (as is likely), having one person handling both will reap dividends in the future, as one return 

 

Our Rates are Reasonable

Prices start at just £50 for a simple tax return, if the return includes a single property rental then the price is £75. These prices will include any foreign pages that are required and will be personally checked by our Tax Director before filing and to discuss any issues you might have. 

We can deal with HMRC on your behalf

If you opt to use Albatross Tax for your UK tax dealings (and provide the necessary permissions) we can speak and deal with HMRC on your behalf or answer your queries ourselves. 

Hours on the phone in a queue at 80p a minute to speak to someone? Not with us!

We deal with HMRC queries on your return

We stand by the returns we submit, in the unlikely event that HMRC have queries relating to a return and information we have supplied to HMRC, we will liaise with HMRC as part of the initial fee. 

While we target ourselves at the Falkland Islands market for obvious reasons, are services are not limited to those living there. We are able to assist anyone who needs a UK tax return completing.
