MAAP specialises in providing a comprehensive financial accounting, personal and business tax service to individual taxpayers, partnerships and companies in the Christchurch, Bournemouth and Poole region. This naturally includes financial reporting, VAT, payroll, corporate and personal tax planning services.
Self-employed individuals (sole-traders) and landlords earning over £50,000 will need to comply with Making Tax Digital (MTD) from April 2026. We have already prepared our existing clients for the change, and it is not a difficult transition to make. There is still time for those who have yet to prepare for MTD next April, and we would welcome the opportunity to assist you in that journey.
MAAP Accountants is a registered Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP). We are currently working with our clients to comply with Companies House's requirement that all directors and people with significant control (PSCs) formally verify their identity from 18 November 2025.
Our main client base is centred around the BCP / New Forest region, but we service clients across the central South Coast and up the M3 corridor to London.
We always welcome inquiries from individuals or businesses looking for a new professional adviser. Call us on 01202 474545 to discuss what we can do for you.
Self-employed individuals and landlords with a relevant income of over £50,000 must start reporting under the new MTD reporting regime starting from 6 April 2026.
Compliance requires the use of HMRC-approved accounting software to record separate sources of income and expenditure, and submit an on-line summary report to the HMRC at least every quarter.
Complying with MTD is not difficult, but it involves a significant change in the way you work. Smaller clients can rely upon us and our HMRC-approved bridging software to comply with MTD without having to invest in MTD software themselves. Others must choose one of the approved software solutions and they do take time to implement. The clock is running down … Don't leave it until the last minute to act.
