Working with Business Light
We fix the scope, deadlines and responsibility in the contract before any work starts. Below are the rules we apply to every client.
The contract
What the contract commits us to
Business Light has worked with sole traders and companies since 2009. We do not sell hours - we answer for the state of your books, and that is written into the contract rather than promised across the table.
01 Responsibility
- Penalties and interest incurred through our fault are compensated.
- Filing deadlines are ours to track. A director should not have to keep the reporting calendar in their head.
- Support during a tax inspection is part of the monthly service, not something priced separately once an inspection has already been scheduled.
02 Confidentiality
- Financial information stays within the team that keeps your books.
- Non-disclosure terms are part of the agreement, not a separate document you have to ask for.
03 Getting started
- Before signing we review the state of your accounts. If there are risks, underpayments or unclosed periods, you hear about them before the contract - not a year later from the tax office.
- Handover takes about two weeks and does not require pausing operations. No filing deadline is missed in the process.
04 Fees and ending the agreement
- The fee depends on the tax regime, transaction volume, headcount and foreign trade activity. It is fixed in the contract for the whole term.
- There are no hidden extras: HR records, foreign-trade accounting and management reporting are priced separately and always quoted up front.
- You are free to end the agreement. We hand over the ledger and documents in full.
Individual services - an audit, unblocking tax invoices, removal from the risky-taxpayer list, company registration or grant reporting - can be ordered without moving to full outsourcing.

Support during tax inspections
