Local facts
About Llanelli
Llanelli is in Wales, in the SA15 postcode district, Wales. Welsh taxpayers pay Welsh rates of income tax, set by the Senedd and currently matching the English bands, collected under a C-prefixed tax code. National Insurance, VAT and Corporation Tax are UK-wide. Property purchases in Wales pay Land Transaction Tax to the Welsh Revenue Authority rather than Stamp Duty, with its own bands and rates.

Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
Employer National Insurance
Since April 2025 employer National Insurance has been 15% on earnings above a £5,000 secondary threshold, a substantial increase for small employers. The Employment Allowance rose to £10,500 at the same time to soften it for the smallest businesses. Directors deciding their own salary weigh this cost against the Corporation Tax deduction a salary provides.
Workplace pensions and auto-enrolment
Workplace pension compliance is part of payroll, not separate from it. Each pay period the payroll assesses who is eligible, calculates employer and employee contributions on qualifying earnings between the lower and upper thresholds, and sends the contribution file to the scheme. The minimum total is 8%, and many employers choose to contribute more as a recruitment advantage.
Dormant companies
Dormancy is a status that is easy to lose. The strict rule is no accounting transactions other than share capital and Companies House fees, which means no bank account activity at all in practice. Fees should be paid personally by the director. A company that traded and has stopped becomes dormant only after its final trading accounts and tax return are filed and HMRC is told.
The trading and property allowances
Not every small income needs a tax return. The trading allowance exempts the first £1,000 of self-employment or casual income and the property allowance does the same for rental income, each measured on gross receipts. They cannot be combined with rent-a-room relief on the same income, and claiming the allowance means giving up the expense deduction for that source.
Crypto records and reporting
Most crypto holders have taxable events they do not recognise, because every swap is a disposal even when no pounds change hands. The computation requires the complete transaction history from every exchange and wallet, pooled by asset with HMRC's matching rules applied. Exchange-generated tax reports are frequently wrong because they cannot see transfers between a user's own wallets.
The 60-day property CGT return
Selling UK residential property that was not your main home for the whole period of ownership triggers a separate Capital Gains Tax return, due within 60 days of completion along with payment of the tax. This is in addition to the annual Self Assessment. The gain is taxed at 18% or 24% depending on your income band, after the £3,000 annual exempt amount.
Record keeping
HMRC requires records of all income and expenses, bank statements, invoices and receipts to be kept for at least five years after the 31 January filing deadline of the tax year they relate to, and companies must keep records for six years from the end of the accounting period. Digital copies are acceptable. Under Making Tax Digital the records must be kept in compatible software.
Questions
Landlord & Property Tax questions from Llanelli
What expenses can I claim?
Letting agent fees, repairs and maintenance, buildings and contents insurance, ground rent and service charges, council tax and utilities you pay, accountancy, legal fees for lets of a year or less, replacing furniture and appliances, mileage to the property, and advertising. Improvements, your own labour and the capital part of mortgage payments are not allowable.
Is replacing a kitchen a repair or an improvement?
Replacing like with like, or with the modern equivalent, is a repair and deductible, even if the new kitchen is better quality because standards have risen. Adding something that was not there before, such as extending the kitchen or adding a dishwasher space, is an improvement and goes against the capital gain instead. We split mixed invoices.
What is included in the £149 one-property fee?
The rental income and expenditure account for the property, a review of every expense category, the finance-cost credit calculation, the UK property pages and the rest of your Self Assessment return completed and filed with HMRC. Rental income alongside employment or a pension is the most common case and this fee covers it.
How is mortgage interest treated now?
Since April 2020 individual landlords cannot deduct mortgage interest or other finance costs from rental profit. Instead you receive a tax reduction of 20% of the finance costs. For higher-rate taxpayers this means more tax than under the old rules, and the restriction can push rental profit into a higher band. We calculate it and carry forward any unused credit.
Do I have to use Making Tax Digital?
From April 2026 if your combined property and self-employment income was over £50,000 in 2024/25, from April 2027 if over £30,000, and planned for April 2028 at £20,000. It means digital records and quarterly updates to HMRC. We assess your start date as part of the return and set up the bookkeeping when it applies.
What is the property allowance?
The first £1,000 of gross rental income each year is tax free, and if your rental income is under £1,000 you need not report it. Above £1,000 you can either deduct the allowance instead of expenses or claim actual expenses, whichever is better. It cannot be used with rent-a-room relief on the same income.
Do you have an office in Llanelli?
No. IGI Accounting is an online-only firm. We serve Llanelli and every other UK postcode remotely, with records sent by WhatsApp or email and everything filed electronically. The absence of local premises is why the fee for landlord & property tax is the same in Llanelli as anywhere else in the country, and why there is nothing to visit and nothing to print.
Is landlord & property tax in Llanelli really the same price as elsewhere?
Yes. The fee published on this page is what a client in Llanelli pays and what a client in any other part of Wales pays. It is confirmed in writing before work starts and the invoice matches the quote. Where a higher package applies because your situation is more complex, we say so at the quote stage, never afterwards.
