Corporation Tax Outsourcing Guide

 

Why outsource tax preparation?

Outsourcing tax preparation has many benefits for businesses. These include access to expertise, cost savings and focus on core activities.

Access to Expertise: Tax regulations and compliance requirements are complex and changing. An outsourced tax service gives us access to people who are up to date and have experience. For example they can navigate changes in tax laws such as the Finance Act 2020 so we stay compliant. They also offer tax services across multiple jurisdictions so we get expert advice across many regions.

Cost Savings: Hiring and maintaining an in-house tax team is expensive. The cost of a full time tax professional is £40,000-£70,000 per year. Outsourcing is a more cost effective solution as we only pay for the services provided and not the overheads.

More Focus on Core Activities: Managing tax preparation internally takes up valuable time and resources away from our core business activities. By outsourcing we can focus more on product development and customer service which directly contributes to business growth. According to a 2021 Deloitte report companies that outsource non-core functions saw a 20% increase in productivity.

Better Accuracy and Compliance: Tax mistakes can lead to penalties and audits and drain financial and time resources. Outsourced tax services use advanced tools and systems to ensure higher accuracy. They also do regular compliance checks to reduce the risk of errors. They also advise on structuring and income flows for each investment so we are compliant and financially efficient.

Scalability and Flexibility: Business needs can change significantly throughout the year. Outsourcing gives us the flexibility to scale up or down according to our current needs. For example during peak periods like the end of the financial year we can allocate more resources to manage the workload.

Outsourcing tax preparation gives us many benefits and puts our business in a position for growth and operational efficiency. By using external expertise, cost savings and time savings we can focus on our core business.
