Common questions
GST, ITIS, deadlines and fees - the things Jersey business owners ask us most.
01Do I need to register for GST in Jersey?
You must register for GST once your taxable turnover exceeds £300,000 in any 12-month period, and you can register voluntarily below that. We can advise whether registration makes sense for you, handle the registration and file your quarterly returns.
02What is ITIS and do I need to run it for my employees?
ITIS is Jersey's Income Tax Instalment System. As an employer you deduct tax from each employee's pay at their effective rate and report it, along with Social Security contributions, on the combined employer return. We run the whole process for you - payslips, deductions and filings.
03When is the Jersey personal tax return deadline?
Paper returns are usually due at the end of May and online returns at the end of July following the tax year. We track the deadlines and prepare and file your return in good time.
04How much does it cost?
We work on fixed, agreed-upfront fees rather than hourly billing, based on the size of your business and what you need - from bookkeeping-only through to a full service with payroll, GST and tax returns. Email us for a quote.
05Can you take over from my current accountant or bookkeeper?
Yes. Switching is straightforward - with your permission we contact your current accountant for a professional handover of your records, so there's no disruption to your filings.
06Do I have to use Xero?
No, but we recommend it. As Xero Certified Advisors we can set you up, migrate your existing records and keep everything reconciled - you get a live view of your numbers from anywhere.
