Birmingham Tax, Done Properly

Tax doesn’t stand still, and neither does Birmingham. If you’re running a business in the city — a sole trader in Digbeth, a limited company on Colmore Row, a landlord across the suburbs, or a contractor on one of the HS2 sites — the chances are you’re either paying more tax than you should, or you’re one missed deadline away from a penalty.

Our Birmingham office handles everything from standard self-assessment returns to complex multi-income tax planning. We’re AAT Licensed, we understand Birmingham’s business landscape, and we know where the tax savings usually hide.

Fixed fee. No surprises. Filed on time, every time.

Why a Local Birmingham Tax Accountant Matters

Birmingham has one of the most diverse business economies in the UK. From the financial services firms in the Colmore Business District to the creative agencies in Digbeth, the manufacturing operations in Aston and Erdington, and professional practices throughout Edgbaston and Harborne — each sector has its own tax profile.

A Birmingham landlord managing HMOs across Selly Oak is dealing with completely different tax challenges to a contractor working on HS2 infrastructure under CIS. Generic online tax services can’t handle that specificity. An accountant who doesn’t know Birmingham can’t give you the local, practical guidance you need.

Our Colmore Row office puts us at the heart of Birmingham’s business district. Whether you want to come in, join a video call, or manage everything through our client portal, we work the way you work. What stays constant: you’ll always know what you’re paying, you’ll never miss a deadline, and you’ll always get a straight answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about tax accountants in Birmingham.

How much does a tax accountant in Birmingham cost?

Self-assessment tax returns start from £190 + VAT at Severn Accounting. The exact fee depends on complexity. We always give you a fixed fee upfront — no surprises, no hourly billing.

Can I meet my tax accountant in person in Birmingham?

Yes. Our Birmingham office is on Colmore Row, B3 2BJ — in the heart of the Colmore Business District. You’re welcome to come in. We also work with many Birmingham clients entirely remotely over video call and our client portal.

When is the self-assessment tax return deadline?

The online self-assessment deadline is 31 January each year. Miss it and HMRC issues a £100 automatic penalty — more if you’re later than 3 months. We file well ahead of the deadline.

Do I need an accountant if I'm a sole trader in Birmingham?

Not legally, but most Birmingham sole traders find it worthwhile. A good accountant claims every allowable expense and typically saves you more in tax than you pay in fees. We offer fixed-price self-assessment from £190 + VAT.

What is Making Tax Digital and does it affect me?

MTD for VAT is already live. MTD for Income Tax arrives from April 2026 for sole traders and landlords with income over £50,000. We help Birmingham clients get set up on approved digital software before the deadline.

Can you help if I've received an HMRC enquiry letter?

Yes. HMRC enquiries are stressful — we handle all communication on your behalf, gather documentation, and resolve the enquiry as quickly as possible. Call us straight away on 07950 244741.

Do you help Birmingham landlords with their tax returns?

Absolutely. Section 24, 60-day CGT reporting, and MTD for ITSA — property tax in Birmingham is complex. We look after many West Midlands landlords and optimise their tax position year-round.

How quickly can you file my tax return?

Once you send us your information, we aim to have a draft return back to you within 5–7 working days for straightforward cases. We’ll always give you a clear timeline upfront.
