Scotland
Accountants in Scotland
Scotland sets its own income tax bands, with six rates from the 19% starter rate to the 48% top rate, so Self Assessment for Scottish taxpayers is calculated differently from England and the tax code HMRC issues carries an S prefix. We handle Scottish returns, limited company accounts, VAT and payroll online for every town from Dumfries to Thurso, at fixed fees that do not change north of the border.
Clients across Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dundee, Inverness and the islands use us because Scottish tax has its own wrinkles: the intermediate 21% band, the interaction between Scottish rates and UK-wide dividend tax, and Land and Buildings Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty on property. We explain all of it in plain English and file for one fee agreed in writing before we start.
Scottish limited companies pay UK Corporation Tax and file with Companies House in Edinburgh, while their directors pay Scottish income tax on salary and UK rates on dividends. Getting the split right matters more here than anywhere else in Britain. Our online service covers every Scottish postcode with the same named contact, fixed fees and deadline tracking as the rest of the UK.
Tax in Scotland differs from the rest of the UK on earned income: six bands with a 21% intermediate rate and a 48% top rate, identified by an S prefix on the tax code. The interaction between Scottish rates on salary and UK rates on dividends makes the salary-and-dividend split for Scottish directors a distinct calculation, and Land and Buildings Transaction Tax replaces Stamp Duty.

Questions
Questions about Scotland
Do you cover all of Scotland?
Yes. Every one of the 5,599 places in Scotland listed on this site has its own page and the same published fees. The larger towns and cities also have pages for each specialist service. Because the work is done online, there is no difference in service or price between the largest city in the region and the smallest village.
Are there regional differences in tax for Scotland?
Scotland has some devolved tax differences: six Scottish income tax bands from 19% to 48%, and Land and Buildings Transaction Tax instead of Stamp Duty. We apply them correctly for every client in Scotland.
How do I find my town in Scotland?
Use the A to Z browse links on this page, which list every place in Scotland by first letter, or go straight to the largest towns listed above. Each place page shows the services available there with fees, the nearest other places we cover and the deadlines that apply.
